  • JUST EXPERIENCED THE SAME!

  • ...lightning at about 3:01 looked greenish...!

  • at 3 i was terrified of thunder and lightning even now i am 21 and would still be scared LOL

  • i think the green light u saw was a power flash vbut this is a wicked and intense storm

  • how long did the strom last

  • I LOVE LIVING IN THE UK

  • 21 got hit by lightnings of dat storm and they missed the thumb up button and accidently hitted thumb down :c

  • Wow!!! And I thought my lightning storms were bad in California!!!! Great Video!

  • How long did the thunder storm last for

  • Comment removed

  • Wow I wish I was there! The only thunderstorms I have seen are not that great. In fact rather boring.

  • i almost got hit by lighting once it was a really bad t-storm and i stupidly walked home that day from school

  • i hate thunder storm

  • at 2:32 did the tree in the left get hit by lighting or was that a camera glich

  • I like a good thunderstorm too but unfortunately we very rarely get one here in the south of England!

  • I love watching storms better than movies :-) I learned however that lightning can come through glass windows, concrete into basements, and it tends to make me a LOT more nervous now, know the people who got killed in their basement from lightning coming through their cement walls. I watch from a glassed in porch, gives me the illusion of safety. Your kid is lucky, he's taking his cues from you.

  • @gmj2012 what are you talking about...? no it can't...atleast, only if you don't have a lightning rod.

  • @MrOssumAnt Oh yes it can, ask any meteorologist or scientist, even local fire dept. may be able to tell you if they've ever had to respond to one, it's not that rare or common either, but it does happen often enough. I don't have a lightning rod, nor do most homes today--it's not a standard build on anymore, mostly only older victorian type homes or upgraded add-on by homeowner these days. Where I live now, power lines & transformer 2 feet from my window, it's a concern, love watching tho.

  • @pokemon LOL

  • looks incredible wish i was there i love thunder its so intense

  • Anyone ever been in the middle of a hurricane? i have, it's much more fun that this trust me...

    or is it dangerous... hmmm i forget.

  • @RecoverRedeem We've been through hurricanes Bonnie (1998), Isabel (2003), and Irene (2011). Of the three, Isabel was the worst for us, and it was barely a Cat1 when it got here. I decided then that we'd evacuate if anything above a Cat2 was headed for us (although it is tempting to stay and witness the awesome fury of nature).

  • @TheMonTSteR lol i agree, up here in chicago though it's kinda lame unless you head towards the lakefront during the summer or early spring.

    What was it... i think july or june yea sometime going onto august when i was working at the taste i got smashed into a storm that was more or less like this, saw some wicked BRIGHT WHITE lightning it was insane literally saw a giant streak across the sears tower lol but kinda wish i was there to see that storm where u were at looks amazing!!!

  • @TheMonTSteR You have a great camcorder! When i tried capturing a storm recently it was black in between the strikes so didn't work too well.

  • @TheMonTSteR i was in australian cyclone ului when it hit. It was pretty awesome, it went straight through us (Proserpine)

  • @TheMonTSteR THIS IS AAAAAWESOME!

  • Great video! Love it!

    I wish I had a father like that when I was 3 years old. I used to be very scared of thunderstorms and my parents always punished me for that. It would have been better if they took me to a window to watch it with me and be this excited about it. It's great :)

  • @Myriejj i feel so petty for you....

  • Love it. Cute kid too :)

  • If you look right after 2:25 , and pause at 2:32 at the correct time you can see what looks like yellow/green small lightning bolt. Probably where it grounded off at, in front of the building you're looking at. That's Awesome.

  • hahaha day night day night day night at least what it looks like to me

  • iv always loved know what its like to walk througha thunderstorm :P From the UK here

  • aweasome dude

  • C'mon man! Put that camera on a tripod and get some popcorn, that's what I do. (Minus the camera) :)

  • Whoa...Its Thunder where I Am Now =)

  • whats the best month and best state for thunderstorms in the u.s im coming over next year for 3 weeks for a storm holiday

  • @winza11 Florida is the lightning capital of the Nation but I don't live there. Where I'm from, it's late *April* to early *May*-June. We get HUGE ELECTRICAL STORMS!!!! I kid you not, alteast 7-8 bolts of lightning every second, it's like a warzone! Hell I'm getting all excited just typing to you about it.

    You might want to pick up "The Old Farmers 2012 Almanac" It saved my ass during the 09 Ice Storm and is very handy when timing storm chases. I plan them months ahead. PM me for more info.

  • Just a bunch of flashing construction lights and guns up in the the atmoshere.

  • holy crap, i wish we would get good thunderstorms like that (i love thunderstorms)

  • amazing

  • Laughing makes the storm angry xD

  • I didnt even get to the 30 second mark and i already liked and favoritied lol. I LOVE crazy weather but where i live, we barely get anything crazy. Last winter, we got a thunderstorm but not like this. Your lucky man cause i would love to live where you get weather like that!

  • looks like a pants crapping good time.

  • I would have died laughing if they lost power right after the guy said "I'm surprised we haven't lost power by now"

  • if you paise right on the bright flash of lightning it looks like its day time

  • @allen3601 pause

  • thats looks cool

  • how long did that last cause it looked like hours

  • This is the storm of my dreams, the most we ever get here is the odd bit of sheet lightning and small rumbles. Great job getting some of it on film!

  • Awesome!! Future storm chaser right there!!!! Thumbs up dad!!!!

  • wow! intense!

  • I would have loved to b there!

  • tht was really greeen lightning interesting, i loved the vid but i hate storms sadly nice job though! :)

  • @FromAtoZand0to9 I live in New Jersey and there are thunderstorms all the time in the late spring and summer. I hate it one bit. I understand that from a place without lightning it would be cool to see one. I used to live in Santa Barbara County, California and I do recall a lot of sunshine, which I like a lot. I get so annoyed with even seeing storms in the forecast that I think of go back to CA after college. Florida, however, thunders all the time during the summer and it gets out of control.

  • Comment removed

  • @FromAtoZand0to9 Yeah Florida has loads of storms. I am an outdoors person and a student pilot so I even get annoyed with rain, even humidity! But I do like snow and skiing.

  • @NHRHS2010 Oh ya I definitely see how rain could be annoying to you then. The snow is exciting. I've never been skiing though. Sounds fun! :)

  • When I went camping couple months ago the weather was going to be fin but a thunder storm that was like this was right over the top of my friends and I in the 3rd day. Lucky for tents that night

  • very nice storm. being the weather nut I am I would have loved to have got those great lighting shots lol

  • Thunderstorms put me to sleep. They are so relaxing. Thumbs up if you agree

  • I love thunderstorms too. I always call it the "lightning show!" I love hearing you and your son enjoying this! Makes me smile.

  • I am now 56 yrs old and my Father has been gone for over 10 yrs. As a child, thunder really frightened me. On a rare occasion when my Father was at the house during a really loud storm, he saw the distress in my face as the booming claps peeled and rolled off into the distance. He related that during WWII he was on a small ship in transit back to the carrier he flew from when a contingent of the Japanese Navy began firing salvos into the heart of the fleet. In response, the U.S. Battleships

  • began to return fire. Nestled in the "eye of the storm" as it were, he could hear the huge naval guns fire as the projectiles sailed over his tiny ship on their way to strike the Japanese. The exchange went on for hours with shells being thrown in both directions. He explained the principles of simple physics which produced the concussion of the blast and then the rolling peel as the thumping and rumbling sounds trailed off into the distance. He said that the shells passing through the air on

  • explanation of how similar the two experiences were to one another, my Father diffused the fears I had over the violent concussions I heard during a thunderstorm. To cap off the explanation of the sounds of thunder and his experiences in the Navy, he told me the next time I heard thunder, close my eyes and imagine that it was me on board that tiny ship in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and all that I heard were the cannon shells being fired between two huge groups of ships knowing that none of

  • them would ever fall short causing me harm. Today, where I live, as I experienced the boom and roll of the thunderstorm in my area of Arkansas, my thoughts shoot back to a time in my life when my Father showed me his love by setting my troubled mind in a direction of knowledge and understanding of not only nature and how it worked, but his nature as well. Dad, you were my best friend. I miss you very much. May you forever Rest in Peace.

  • Doesnt that lightning storm reminde you of the scene in saving private ryan when there walking across the feild through the explosions?

    im watching lightning (and i can be a bit paranoid about thunder...always blocking my ears just incase its close) and the one fucking time i dont a blinding bolt of light fomr lightning(i was facing away) not even split second later...it wasnt even a crack it was like a MAJOR static sound...

  • yah its like this sometimes in summer we have had a lot of close chances to tornadoes in Florida its very cool

  • beautiful... its the stuff I just love to watch, listen and fall asleep to, its great sound therapy.

  • Thunder's funder!

  • That's the worst thunderstorm I've ever seen lol. How could you not be terrified?? Lovely to see a boy and his daddy having so much fun together. Kids are a great excuse to let go of all our adult inhibitions and be a child again lol. This will be an amazing video for your little boy to watch when he's older, I bet he never forgets what an awesome time he had with his dad on that night.

  • @psg1504 Live in Florida, you'll get quite a few bad ones like this every year..you get used to it, as a matter of fact, they help me sleep when they are during the night...

    They are just so peaceful, like a relaxing peaceful, not the kind of peaceful where you want to hug them xD

  • @Siconify Peaceful?? I'll have to take your word for it lol. Personally I'd be shaking under the duvet if we ever had anything near as violent as this in the UK lol. I must admit though, it is a spectacular display of nature :D

  • Lol he loves it <3

    Mother natures power viewed from a childs eyes, makes me feel so young again when me and my dad first watched lightning storms though few were this electrified. One in particular I remember when I was scryking and peeling paper off my wall when lightning through the window instantly silenced me, soon after me dad and mum watched the storm from the porch, BANG BANG went the lightning hitting everything nearby. One of my earliest memories, I couldnt have been older than 3 or 5.

  • that green color from the lightning was crazy.

  • Won't post my previous comment...kept trying but oh well :( thx for sharing ur video!
