[GeoffBlackmore]

I saw an electrical storm like this off the coast of Hawke's Bay in New Zealand, around 1992. It was continuous for about three hours, and also didn't have any thunder. It was an awesome sight! Thanks for the video

The best storms are always at night. I've saved this to my favourites too.

Thanks for posting a fantastic video.

[SuperBigmac1997]

i wish i lived in brisbane...i always see videos of lightning there...

[cooliesass]

Excellent capture of an outstanding night-lightning display! Saved to my favorites!

[jjsproull]

the video is not sped up - you can see the cars going by at normal speed, this really happened!

[SuperBigmac1997]

@jjsproull -it never stops!one bolt after another!

[louisetardif86]

Did you speed up the video?

[letmein53]

I feel bad for any pilots who had to fly through that...If they got caught in it

[theYoda09]

What happened when this one passed

[meade918]

It looks close but is .. verz far away .. also 5* gg bro

[Mandego]

Incredible footage! I can only imagine how amazing this storm must have looked seeing it with your own eyes.

[mrzoda08]

SKY WORKS OF ART

[volcano83]

[StormChaserSadek]

[KineticalKreations]

Like WWIII happening in the clouds.

[TravvyG]

One of those Storms cells went over where I live 4 hours inland from Brisbane it didn't do much damage it just nock the power our for 7 hours or so but it just about trast the twin town 8kms away and the winds where very strong and clouds where very low it was awesome but I felt sorry for whoevers trampaleen that was wrapped around a Pole

[ronpack]

awesome

[daffodilsfield]

is that normaalll??

[EDDIE95G3AR]

this was one of the best storm i have ever seen  i want another one this year like in 4 days

[BuBBlez12334455]

thats the storm 4 days after the 16th of nov storm..

we've had a storm in bundy thats gone for 4 days straight.. thunder and lightning were going through the day aswell as night same with the rain..

[Rupetthebear]

What kind of camera did you use for this.Its amazing.

[jjsproull]

just a regular digi camera at the spur of the moment!

[Rupetthebear]

This is awesome ,so beautiful.

[cosi66]

wow really amazing

[seanrox1]

sh...

[Brizman101]

We had a week or two of severe storms.

[ST0RM13542]

Wooooooooow!! this is beautiful video!

[fredde1995]

WTF the light dont fucking stops!!

[TonyEtna1987]

WoW ! Quanti fulmini.

[gabydriftking01]

its look like a war!!!awesome

[06laneja]

I think it was this same night that a storm rolled over the redcliffe area at the same time. Both storms went north and south of where i live at sandgate. But the light show was just awesome! A week of freakish storms!!

[FinaJimz87]

That's really freaky!! =]

[volval0]

very nice 5 stars! i would like to know was there any thunder because it sounded like there was none!

[jjsproull]

there wasn't too much but you couldn't hear it well either... this is taken about 5-6km's from where it was happening

[MrTumblingtumbleweed]

Great Lightning footage guys! Just one thing....You really need to get yourself a Tripod. Good capture though anyway.

[jjsproull]

Was an adlib clip my mate caught on his digital camera while at work.... no time for tripods!!

[ReelFights]

its real, and FOOKING AWESOME!!!! might be easy to replace audio, but not for the cars going past

[jjsproull]

trust me, it ain't a fake!!! It was very real at the time.

[Bridport6705]

Amazing, good colours too, we have NOTHING like this in the UK

[jjsproull]

we don't normally have anything like this here either! Just storms that are a few notches less.

[stormsfish]

best lightning i have ever seen

[XXXXShelts]

Got a good view of this storm from the Southern Suburbs looking over toward the coast. Ive never seen lightning like that anywhere before.

[Lustmord1970]

Unbelievable lightning show guys.... 5*

[GreenFantasia]

i can't believe this is real.. did you speed it up?

is that what a storm usually looks like in brisbane?

[jjsproull]

definitely not.... listen to the audio. I've lived in Brisbane 28 years and never seen anything as violent as these three storms cells merging. Storms get pretty full on here, but not usually as bad as this. the storm on the Sunday before this almost wiped out a suburb here.

[GreenFantasia]

the audio is no proof at all, one could can easily add any audio to any movie..

+ the audio is what confuses me most. i hear no thunder at all.. just some wind and sizzling noise that doesn't sound like thunder at all..

[BeniMC]

Take it from the folks that live here. This was real, very real. The lightning is too far away to be heard as thunder. If you need proof check out the billiion other videos of this storm on here!

[simonspiers]

Absolutely fantastic 5 stars +

[danb92uk]

The best HD of lightning on YouTube

[paerondryck]

Incredible. This makes me wanna go to the US or somewhere else where you can experience some real weather.

If you don't mind I'd also like to ask you if you're able to find out what camera which was used to record this, really good quality.

[H0ld3nlgnd]

is that sped up or what lol far out mate thats scary as

[jjsproull]

no speeding up here.... my mate took this i was actually in the city/valley of brisbane where is was hitting us pretty hard. I've never seen anything like it and we can get pretty full on here

[slartyuk]

AMAZING Thanks

[stormspinner1]

That is one of the most spectacular, lightning filled storms I've ever seen. GORGEOUS capture: lightning my very favorite element of storm. Wonder how many flashes per hour in that cloud? WOW. 5/5 amazing stars and an add to my Lightning Striking Again playlist, thanks!

*StormSpinner1* in Texas

[AeroStorm911]

wow, that is probably the most impressive display of lightning ive ever seen, great catch!

[Chatman2003de]

Wow... :)

[oriongirlfan]

I first (until I saw the cars going by slowly) thought this was time-lapse photography but I see that it was realtime - amazing - my friend recorded one nearly this frequent of lightning.

[ananiasacts]

Let's not give god acid again.

[disasterlover]

i want a thunderstorm like it this summer

[dagochampion]

my lord!!!!!

[Govenator001]

AMAZING!

[mezpezlez]

This is amazing...most frequent lightning ive seen. Your camera caught it very well! what camera is it?

[jjsproull]

Just a regular digi camera - nothing special! Can't even remember the brand off the top of my head :)

[mikeofmacc]

Unbelievable. Hoow on earth would you go about recording that to write up?!?!

[derbigpr500]

damn that looks like the world is going to end any moment.

[frenchy4001]

haha ive heard it at 2:21 hahah!!!!!!!! u got good hears man!!

[jlingham]

What's not to love about a good storm hey?? That is INSANE!

[sidekike3]

Thats crazy!

[poelingoer]

anyone else notice the crazy face?

[jjsproull]

i did see it after you pointed it out...

[poelingoer]

yeh lookin down goin Mwahahahahahahaha

[gavinfalconer]

the clouds are to high up it cant get to the ground so thats why that is happening

[Mediaclick7]

tht is awesome! i wish i could capture something like this, how often does this happen?

[jjsproull]

these were pretty freak storms, but with the way things are going here, we'll prob have more

[philandrewroywatson]

Did you hear the uncouth Aussie BELCH ! at 2min 21 secs. ??!!

[jjsproull]

I probably know him.... and the shakiness for a bit is my mate trying to light a ciggy

[thegenuinechunkybits]

We used to get lightning storms like these in Brisbane all the time. I used to enjoy watching them - it never gets old. The last several years have been rather timid, though... glad they're back :-)

[guarana80]

Last night lightning was epic. It just didn't stop . It was like there was a war happening in the clouds .

[casperblackcat1975]

I love it when it's like that you can sit there & watch for hours.

[casperblackcat1975]

We get lightning like that & I'm in the Mallee region of Victoria.

[alfdepalm]

beautiful!

[MDHmodder]

I have been to ontario Canada every year where they get tornadic storms and I have still never seen anything like this before...

[jjsproull]

We've never seen anything like this before either.... 3rd severe storm in 5 days.
