Well you can imagine getting flung around at a few hundred miles per an hour while getting hit by debris...Chances are you won't survive it before you know what it's like to be inside a hurricane or tornado. I can tell you that if you do get caught in it, it could completely destroy your body. I've heard a tornado can fling the softest of objects through a metal.
As for a hurricane, if you are in the eye of the hurricane, everything will seem very peaceful. It'll be like the storm is over. However, that is only because you are in the eye, which is the center and most calm part of the storm. Once the hurricane moves a bit more, it gets very violent. This is why during a hurricane, if it seems like its over, you still should not go outside.

A hurricane is just a really bad storm, nothing too spectacular.
Hardly anyone survives actually being *in* a tornado, the debris is worse than being shot at with a machine gun. You aren't lifted up into the tornado, you're pushed mostly horizontally. Almost everyone who dies from a tornado dies from the flying rocks and hail. Tornadoes are invisible except for the debris, so up close it look like a bunch of stuff spinning in a circle really fast. Usually in a tornado-producing storm, the sky turns an extreme black, darker than night, so you can't see anything. Hail(big chunks of ice, sometimes the size of baseballs) fall from the sky and smash everything around the tornado. Before and after the tornado, the sky sometimes turns an unnatural shade of purple or orange.

(Your eyes won't be sucked out of your head in a tornado. There are actually a few people who have survived passing through one)

well in a tornado if you opened your eyes they would get sucked out of your head. then you would have to deal with debries and dirt moving at 200mph. a hurricane just has more water and is alot more wide spread.
trust me i have sat in my basement throught two tornados and they suck
