I'd say "gay reaction" (just to be fashionable...I just HATE that expression) :D but I have been there and you just can't help your reaction. Mine was "Fu" then the thunder hit.
@SpywareHater Usuallty happens with video recorders. They have all sorts of audio shaping and limiting on them, to make recording easier. You see shots from lightning chasers and they always sound lame.
@XTwisternickX As a person who has been closer to strikes more often than I really want, I will venture an opinion. Looking a the film, the main strike is some way away (about 0.5-1 sec to thunder = 500-100 feet. But there is a side strike that really does come down close. Also, the thunderclap that comes from lightning is a funny thing, if the strike is really close. It seems delayed more than logical. Maybe comes from further up the track? shrug.
THIS!!!!! in 1964 13 year old Elisa Johnson was raped and murdered in North Carolina, her body was found with multiple stab wounds, and now that you've read this, every night she will come to your house and hang from your closet with glowing red eyes, the only way to stop this is to post this to 10 other videos. SORRY I DIDNT WANT HER IN MY ROOM
and those weren't the first two times. When i was 9, it was storming and lightning struck 30 ft. from my house but i was inside then when i was 14 going through a storm i saw a double lightning strike and it was not too far in front of me so yeah i've had quite a few close calls.
that happened to me twice in a day. I was sleeping, it was 2:30 a.m. and all of a sudden a loud lightning strike was right by my house and i jumped and later that day during my 5th hour class i was taking notes and another lightning strike struck right outside the classroom and we all jumped and some of us screamed. Hmm, twice in one day, what could that mean......
I managed to freeze the video in the few milliseconds of the strike. It actually looks like it struck the house next to the one with the red car. It strikes in the area where the chimney is usually located so I guess they have an aerial or something. Not too sure but that's how it looks to me.
I paused exactly where the lightning strike showed up on the video and I can see that it looks like it is in front of you but in fact it hit actually hit a house across the road from you so it wasn't anywhere near you which was very lucky.
@cizzlen07 LOL!!! It's true, though! I would define "right here" as in...maybe the front yard? That was down the street several houses. Nice to know others agree with me. :)
@mikey3348 Holy delayed response, Batman! :) The sound was pretty cool, and it was...relatively close, yes. However, I believe the best strikes are the ones you see but have no time to react before you're deafened...and rattled. :D
if you pause it just before the strike, you can see at least two streamers (the part that rises from the ground before the lightning strikes), one right in front of the screen door, and another on the other side of the road at the right. As far as i can make out, the lightning hits about four houses up that side street, so the actual bolt is not 10 ft in front of you (the streamer was), maybe 100-150 ft away, but still more than close enough to make you shit your pants :P
That lightning bolt actually struck on the street over or the one after that, if you watch closely you can see the houses across the street (directly in front of the lightning strike) stay dark, as the bolt passes behind it. The lightning bolt you "see" dropping below the edge of the video is actually a reflection from the lens onto the lens cover of your camera (there's a space between the actual lens of the camera and the cover that protects it from debris). Still, very very close strike. Nice
0:50 It's just an ordinary day in a dark sky with god saying hi ten feet away from us and what's that noise.....BOOOM!! An angel just got a strike bowling in heaven!
fuck that, dude how that did not hit you i don't know, but to me that looked as if it struck pretty close to what looks like the fly screen on ya window,possibly door.
It hit about 2 houses down, if you pause it at 0:50. Where in Oregon did you move to? I just moved from Oregon to Arizona, and I get better storms here than I did in OR.
pause at exactly 0:50 you will see the strike is about 200 yards down the street at the first or 2nd house on the right and your neighbor has a nice truck btw hahaha
that was actually pretty close for comfort. I slowed it down and it was really close. I noticed the first bolt was tiny follow by the main bolt (a lot bigger) trust me folks its closer than you think!
@Mrsugarpuffy Now why would you think that I take the internet seriously? Am I yelling? Do I seem mad? Why don't you just accept the fact that you're last comment was dumb?
@Mrsugarpuffy Holy shit you're so dumb it's not even funny. It's clear that you're 12 years old, max. There's so many things wrong with you're comeback that you need to just go jump off a cliff and die. Arguing with a 12 year old is like talking to a monkey. A mentally disabled monkey.
No way that was 10 feet,there is a delay between the strike and the thunder.If it were 10ft away the thunder would have been almost instantaneous.
I'm not sure if that bolt you see in the video is a streamer of a reflection but if it was a streamer and it connected...well that would have made for a great video!
Yeah. it looks like 500-1000 feet away. To the average person that means nothing. I have been struck by lighthing as well as had a few close calls. When lightning is literally on you, you get paralyzed for several seconds and pushed around. There is a snapping noise and that is it, a massive blast and snap (or several if there are pulses)...and when you wake up, it's impossible to breathe because you are so scared and your body/cardio is in shock
dude if u like pause the video exactly when the lighting bolt hits, it makes it look like its day time, but u hav to pause at the sametime were the bolt hits which is like 0:27
dude that lightning wanted you... you created a charge that the lightning was highly attracted too... and you made that bolt hit a house down the street O_O looks like.... wow i wanna say 100 feet.... very max... maybe even 50 feet. thats so crazy... but nice scream it made the video complete :D
I had a lightning strike hit about 2-300 ft from where I was once when I was outside, You can see it make all kinds of colors (Red,Purple,Blue) Its fucking awesome (and scarry as fuck) to see. pretty amazing lightning is...
I've lived here all my life and have gotten some awesome footage of really close lightning strikes, one strike turned everything on in my house... I didn't think lightning could do that without overloading the electronc devices. 5 stars mate!
awesome lightning your funny,the one at 50 sec do not connect either,he loops the video at 49 sec it's the same strike,take a look at the light pole and how it changes position and yes lightning does strike in the same spot twice or even three times,rare,but it happens,the difference is the bolt never travels the same path it did earlier,it's like a finger print,no one strike is the same.
The video is real. Howeve,r having worked with video for some time now, you can realize this close lightning is simply a defect in recording as the lightning is so bright that it's image jumps onto surrounding frames of video. NOTICE the "close" lightning is exactly the same shape (but ALWAYS) less bright than the one in the distance.
people need to shut the fuck up about saying its real especially datkoolbrutha. i know its real and as for others who think this shit is fake then your fuckin stupid.
THIS VIDEO IS REAL! stop hating on his film. You can tell its real because at 0:27 when the lighting appears. it appears from the ground first which causes a electromagnetic pulse. Also at 0:27 a milosecond or 2 after it. when the lighting strikes on his lawn, the entire screen is lit with light. If it would be a fake video, the screen wouldn't of been Lit. This lighting bolt isen't a very effective strike, but it IS real.
techinically lightning did hit 10 ft away but not exactly. what you experienced was a streamer which poses as a target for the ligtning charge. if the lightning did connect with the streamer you would have experienced much more violent and instantanious thunder.
i was actually thinking that, coz this one time, lighting hit this house about 10houses away, huge flash and the thunder hit almost instantly and shook the house for about 5seconds. but still that was amazing
I dont know if you believing fools have ever been close to lightening, like say 350 yards or over 1000 feet, but the intensity if the boom is like some one inside your head shot a cannon in there.
after done the video pause at 50 and u will see it hit out of his devolpment and its was so big the brach struck an electrical unit (which was camera)
Looks like the main bolt stuck somewhere in the middle of the street, but the bold that branched off from it looked like it actually touched ur window. Thank god for glass right? haha. I was in a shopping mall parking lot and a bolt came down and hit my windsheild. People crowded my car thinking I was dead inside. I didnt feel a thing. Not even a tap on my windsheild. Glass is good. lol
Not bad ...but check out this frightening wild lighting strikes storm at Clermont, Australia at: h t t p :// w w w [dot]youtube[dot]com/watch?v=x cCaSgLas3s
u were inside the house!thx for the video (for those who think is fake why do u see this video dumb ass hole!)its totally awsome by the warth of god .alleluia
Took about 1.5 seconds for the thunder so it was probably about a quarter mile away, which is still close. The camera made an image of the bolt that appears to be up close.
pause it at 0:26 you can see the lightning perfectly striking the 3rd or 4th house on the right side of the street! only thing wrong with is is its not ten feet but damn thats close! 5*
Stop the video at exactly 0:27 and you can see it perfectly. And just before that there is a little line of it it's a really cool video. Reminds me of the day my grandmas house got hit by lightning.
i was at football practice oneday and we decided to go and seek cover in the school that we were practicing at and on our way in we walked under a covered walkway with trees right next to it i was about 4 feet away from the tree when it was struck i would prably be dead if it werent for the fact that the walkway was concrete
It's a camera issue: the fast 'flash-frequency' is too high for the camera to cope with: try filming a strobe, and you'll get the same effect. It is a very nice catch besides that.
Lightning didn't strike 10ft, however what was 10ft away was a charge stream that leaves from earth which reaches out to the lightning from the sky. This can be clearly seen at 27 seconds. Also take note that its leaving from the house on the right. When the lighting charge from the sky connects with this, a lightning strike is created.
Hey man, this is pretty sweet, but it doesn't actually hit 10 ft away, it hits a house down the road. I've caught some strikes on my digital camera, and when its close like this, it causes a frame or two to get all screwed, and kinda off-set. Here it makes the bolt look like it's right outside your door. If you pause at 0:25 and then double click to pause again, you'll see the ACTUAL bolt of lightning, and where it hits.
If you go frame by frame at 27 secs you can see the whole neighborhood lit up like daylight. I saw something similar once when a comet flew past Vancouver in the middle of the night. The duration was longer unfortunately I didn't have equipment at that time.Happened too fast anyway.
0:49 You can see two lines of lightning going up hes lucky the one next to him didn't connect or someone would have been saying " do you smell something burning? lol
i dont think he saw the main thunderbolt, the flash and crack of thunder was too long apart, abeit it was close but what he caught is a leader sprouting off the ground, these are harder to capture on camera but if you look to the right theres a second leader going up too
haha i love the sound he make!! HOOUU HAAO

Yes, it's called a replay.
This is what editors do when they feel they need to show something twice.

That was about 400 feet away. At 10 feet your shoes would have been blown off your feet!

MrBrad123456789 2 years ago
Looks like the main bolt stuck somewhere in the middle of the street, but the bold that branched off from it looked like it actually touched ur window. Thank god for glass right? haha. I was in a shopping mall parking lot and a bolt came down and hit my windsheild. People crowded my car thinking I was dead inside. I didnt feel a thing. Not even a tap on my windsheild. Glass is good. lol

Lol, the first one was real, the second one they just replayed the scene. You can tell by the change in sound/atmosphere before the second one.

Took about 1.5 seconds for the thunder so it was probably about a quarter mile away, which is still close. The camera made an image of the bolt that appears to be up close.

pause it at 0:26 you can see the lightning perfectly striking the 3rd or 4th house on the right side of the street! only thing wrong with is is its not ten feet but damn thats close! 5*

its not at 0:26 its at 0:27 almost 28 and it didnt strike the house, it struck behind the houses.
europe0wnz 2 years ago
Stop the video at exactly 0:27 and you can see it perfectly. And just before that there is a little line of it it's a really cool video. Reminds me of the day my grandmas house got hit by lightning.

It's a camera issue: the fast 'flash-frequency' is too high for the camera to cope with: try filming a strobe, and you'll get the same effect. It is a very nice catch besides that.
weeardguy 2 years ago
at the tail end of 0:49 you can see the step leader coming off the viewers house, wouldve been REAL bad had it connected!
longbow986 2 years ago
Lightning didn't strike 10ft, however what was 10ft away was a charge stream that leaves from earth which reaches out to the lightning from the sky. This can be clearly seen at 27 seconds. Also take note that its leaving from the house on the right. When the lighting charge from the sky connects with this, a lightning strike is created.

CH3MIS7RY 2 years ago
that was awesome! but honestly if you were 10 ft away now surely there would be a louder thunder clap!!
not to mention the fact that you could see it hit the ground!!!!
susienty444 2 years ago
Hey man, this is pretty sweet, but it doesn't actually hit 10 ft away, it hits a house down the road. I've caught some strikes on my digital camera, and when its close like this, it causes a frame or two to get all screwed, and kinda off-set. Here it makes the bolt look like it's right outside your door. If you pause at 0:25 and then double click to pause again, you'll see the ACTUAL bolt of lightning, and where it hits.
try it :)

If you go frame by frame at 27 secs you can see the whole neighborhood lit up like daylight. I saw something similar once when a comet flew past Vancouver in the middle of the night. The duration was longer unfortunately I didn't have equipment at that time.Happened too fast anyway.

lower flash might have been a positive leader. The camera didn't have enough FPS to catch it longer
anonymousstormchaser 2 years ago
i dont think he saw the main thunderbolt, the flash and crack of thunder was too long apart, abeit it was close but what he caught is a leader sprouting off the ground, these are harder to capture on camera but if you look to the right theres a second leader going up too
