I love how the Whitehouse Guard professionally heads inside ... and was that person seriously holding an umbrella??? Somebody left their brain in bed!!! 😆🩷😆
That bolt nailing the corner of that building at 0:54 was crazy, just shows you how much power these bolts can have to blast a crater in a brick/concrete wall.
That one with the Marine was the fanciest, most proficient, and most dignified way of retreating from a storm I have ever seen. Also, it looks perfect for turning into a meme.
The footage from 6:07 the low clouds and lightning is awesome. I love the sound of the cracks of thunder and as it seems to roll across the sky. Nature is truly amazing, and we are so insignificant in comparison.
Brilliant compilation. We don’t get storms like this in England. If we do, it’s once every ten years..lol. Aaaand, if you hear thunder, no matter how distant it seems, get out of, or off, or away from water. You are in danger of a lightning strike. 👍😃
@ 4:28 That right there is VERY dangerous storm. That is Meso-cyclonic supercell. This one in particular is high precip cell meaning it likely contained large hail (green appearance.) Notice how the lightning is literally near constant. Those storms are relentless in power. If you ever come across one, you go inside, take shelter, or get out of the way of the storm entirely. Same thing @ 6:10. Another supercell but this time a clear wall cloud can be seen rotating near center screen & is posing a tornado threat. Notice again... constant lightning. The difference with this one is it is a low precip cell meaning its updraft is so strong hail isn't falling easily.
@@StormChaserMaci. I’ve been in storms like this. The worst ones were in 2011, 2013, 2015 & 2016 twice. It’s suuuuper scary but so worth every second getting videos.
My favorite strikes are the ones that are distant but also have the loud boom to them. These are known as positive ground flashes, and they can have voltages of up to a billion volts and 300,000 amps of current.
I moved away from the Midwest 10 years ago, and I still miss all that glorious weather - temps 30 below 0; tornadoes; blizzards; lightning bolts right in front of your face. Hurricanes in the northeast are so tame by comparison!!
2:08 - Was that scenes that was from "River Monsters"? 12:29 - *Marine:* ... *_(Cue flash of lightning and crash of thunder.)_* ... nope. *_(Proceeds to nope out into the White House entryway.)_* *Can you **_BLAME_** him?* 😬I should say not!😰 12:58 - That boy is going to need a change of underwear after that! 😱 It would scare the pee out of a person!
1.05 It was insane, seeing the fragments of the building flying off from where it was struck, and perhaps the volume was dialled down, but the thunder didn't sound very loud, either. Perhaps it was because it was so close: we got a crack rather than a bang or rumble... 2.10- this is a clip from a TV series called 'River Monsters' with Jeremy Wade. What this clip doesn't reveal was that the cameraman got hit by the lightning, and suffered minor injuries. In fact, other than golf, fishing is probably the worst thing you could be doing during a thunderstorm...
Many years ago, I was getting a ride home by a friend when we stopped at a red light. Not even 5 seconds after we stop, lightning hits the pole right next to us. We both just about jumped out of our skin. Had us both rattled for the rest of the night.
At 8:54, Packie McReary says “Jesus fucking Christ, Michael! That was fucking close! Me ma wouldn’t want any of her kids getting struck by lightning, whether it be me, my brother Derrick, God rest his soul, my brother Francis, God rest HIS soul, my other brother Gerry, or my sister Kate. It would be too much for her to handle.”
About a month ago I made my first ever lightning strike compilation. You are welcome to use some of those in your Scary Lightning Compilation #8, just make sure you put a link in the description. I have some absolute bangers on there. Also, you've got yourself another subscriber.
I just love these people who say Oh my GOD or Jesus Christ whenever lightning hits close to them. That's GOD or Mother Nature telling you to get yourself inside.😂😂😂😂😂😂
I did some lightning videos, but no close strikes on camera, yet... I have a covered porch to watch the lightning, if it gets too close, then I will go inside.
I've had quite a few that were close that I put into different videos on another channel of mine. Lightning fascinates me. I get a little foolish though, sometimes. 😅 I share the same excitement. Goddamn that was close.
I nearly had that happen to me when I lived in Vermont back in 2011. All I remember seeing was a bright pink flash of light, the power went out, I got shot back like 2 feet from where I had been standing, and the camera I had ended up getting fried somehow. The Thunder sounded like drums being torn apart by a chainsaw.
It's one of the best I've seen. Definitely good. My buddy and I almost got struck. 3-26-21. We were 15 ft away. When 1 hit a 1/8 of a mile. Buddy came out of his house. I was like that was a close one. He was like I saw it. I flicked my smoke. Told my buddy. Let's head to job. He was like yea. Good idea. Shit forgot to close shed door. I hop in his truck. He goes to hop in truck. As soon as he closed the door. 4 pulse lightning strike. 25 ft. 5 ft. From back of his shed. Sorry for long story. Tree lost a branch and a bunch of bark. I had just driven 56 miles. Wasn't there 3 minutes. And bam. Trips me out to this day.
Wish the dude in the blue lightning storm didn't blaspheme God's Name. Respect and love are always owed to our God!! He made all that is. We must show Him reverence and gratitude.
Thank you very much for standing up for our Heavenly Father Jehovah God. You know that Jehovah’s people are very blessed that if we’re saved and Born Again. Jehovah God chose us in Jesus Christ before the foundation of the world to be His children. Ephesians chapter 1:4. We didn’t chose Him, He chose us. Praise the Lord!!!🙏
@@jeanniec1000 Indeed! And Jesus says for those with ears to hear! Those with eyes, to see! You can only truly know Him by giving Him a chance to reach out to you and show you who He is. By shutting out all possibility that He exists, you end up blocking Him out, and you cannot know Him. You cannot give Him a chance to speak for Himself!
