Wow...that is stunning I must admit! All those frames only cover a second or two at most, and to see the leaders searching for a way, and once they do, BAM!

You know, I hardly ever see just a single flash of lightning during thunderstorms. The flashes almost always seem to come in at least pairs and that video shows there’s an awful lot that happens when lightning strikes.
