The Formation of a Lightning Bolt

[Mr__Bill]

This is a one second video of a lightning strike slowed down to last a minute and 33 seconds.

Watch The Timestamp Lightning slowed down 300x

Remember when you watch this, the whole thing happened in about 1 second, it's not a loop.

Thanks Bill for an interesting

link to that lightning display. The one second from left looked like it pulsed a few times during it's strike(s). Plus there was a couple of what looked like ground to cloud strikes, (something some people say doesn't happen!). Thanks again for the link.

and who said lightning never strikes the same place twice?

That is a cool shot. When I was a kid, the house where I lived was hit three time before we moved. The first time was when lightning passed between my cousin and I as we ran through the kitchen. and hit an outlet.

That's something else. I don't think I'd be outside filming it.
