Lightning Trigger: A Lichtenberg figure being created by a tap from a nail. In just a few hundred nanoseconds, electrons trapped in plastic exit suddenly as a bright, branching spark.

@lilacgurl but it is visualising the process of an electric discharge, similar to the one that goes on in capacitors, and yes, you are right, its not trapping lightning at all.

The "block" is actually acrylic. The acrylic is first charged, and then when hit with the hammer&nail (which is charged) the electrons are discharged within the block giving the block that appearance. Something along those lines anyhow.
It's not trapping lightning as such.

@TheNilvarg because its not the hitting part that does lightning, its when the hammer is release from the nail that the spark occur and travel through the block and become imortalize
im pretty sure you dont even have to hit, hitting it might just be the thing to pierce the first layer so the bolt travel in the block, piercing it before might do the job as well as hitting it
I could be wrong though

Maybe because lightning is ridiculously fast?
