@@dakotalively5171 There were explosive devices under the water when the lightning struck. It was attracted to the metal that ran into it which triggered them to explode.
Just saying, lightning can travel up to 50 miles from the parent Thunderstorm. The current record lightning bolt traveled 477 miles, meaning they can travel further, but that is very rare. A typical lightning bolt has about 300 million volts, and nearly 30k amps. Lightning can heat the air it passes through to 50,000 degrees Fahrenheit, which is hotter than the surface of the sun. So, if you hear thunder, don't stand outside or near windows. A way to know if you're in the path of a lightning bolt, is if your body tingles, and if your hair starts to stand, like in static. Lightning is caused by negative and positive charges. The positive being in the cloud, and the negative rising up from the ground. When the two connect, a bolt strikes.
@@Logic44 i heard about that a family (who think they were curse cause every member of the family got killed or shocked by a lightning bolt in every generation ) one of them being in her 20 was coming out from a building during a minor thunderstorm while walking to her father car she stopped and got electrocuted under the concrete she survived but suffered a bit by the electrocution
If anyone is wondering about 3:26, I think the lightning struck the car. The man was grounded while touching the car so he got electrocuted, but the woman in the car wasn't touching the ground so she was fine.
4:16 Since similar charges repel each other, the electricity tends to travel on the outer-most portion of the car, meaning you usually won't get shocked unless you're touching the bare metal door. USUALLY.
Yep, true. I looked the video up before and it was on the news like several years ago and they said it was explosives under water that were triggered from the lightning strike (the lightning hit the explosives).
I myself had a bad experience with lightning, I was in the third grade and leaving a beach in Florida because the storm was approaching, and lightning struck barely 20 feet from me. I consider myself lucky that me and my parents weren't struck
@@Bowser14456 How far back was that, if you can remember? And I don't mean regular electronics that depend on the transformer to work. I mean like, if it was as far back as 2000, the early mobile phones.
I’ve seen most of these videos and the crazy thing about lightning in some of the clips with trees and power lines is the heat generated from the initial impact basically superheats trees from the inside causing them to explode off their bark or detonating them, some can leave craters from the impact and on power lines and electrical transformers almost gets turned into molten slag from the electrical discharge and can take out an entire block off power in the grid
You know, I think you might have jumped in this video WAY more than you did with the ocean videos! Your lightning-phobia might be stronger than your aquaphobia XD
I live in Tampa which is the lightning capitol of the U.S and there has not been a time where it has rained and lighting hasnt stuck down more things than Zeus.
3:16 this dude just straight up died right here... 4:15 someone in hell had a score to settle... 4:25 time lapse of leaving food out in a place with roaches... 6:40 DBZ fights taken outside, how bout dat? 7:27 there is no way in God's green earth that this idiot survived... 10:25 this is a rail gun or a rocket launcher, 100%!!! 9:40 & 13:02 are the same video... both are flipped 6:11 & 14:20 are the same video... 15:50 here's one way to cook pigeon...
There was one time at school during a huge thunderstorm, where I witnessed ball lightning. Ball lightning is basically a ball of light from the sky. We saw it come down and then exploded.
Actually the woman in the car wasn’t touching the ground witch made her safe but the man was touching the ground and touching the top of the car witch knocked him out
I only hate lightning because you never know when it is going to hit you because it is so Random I have almost been struck by lightning five times in my life
this brings back a memory of when I was starting an interest into magic and I had just watched the first Pokémon movie . during a huge storm I went into the breeze way of our apartment building and started waving my hand around like mewtwo did in the movie and chanting. the embarrassing part was it looked like what I was doing was working because the storm started calming down. After that all the kids in the neighborhood really thought I was a witch 🤣😂🤣😂
