I was making a recording of my Pole Position arcade game (which I purchased the day before and had just finished fixing) when lighting struck a tree outside my house. I literally got shocked! This was recorded on a digital camera.

  • do you really have the arcade machine

  • @marioworld882 - Yes

  • Talk about losing the game... whoa..

    Well, at least you, and the machine, are ok. :D Always good.

    Say, that tree it struck, how badly was it damaged? Are we talking split in half? (im just curious, lol)

  • The top part of the tree was damaged.. pretty much blown apart. Not split in half... most of the tree is still there.

  • Can you post a video showing us the cabinet

  • Yes... but probably not for a while. The game is currently not in use and being stored - not easy for me to get a video of it at the moment. But if you look around on the web, my cabinet is the standard upright Pole Position variety. Looks just like any other PP cabinet.

  • If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 250 miles per hour...

  • Was the game badly damaged by that lightning strike?

  • @wingnut4427

    Maybe it's Turbo that He prefers. Ridge Racer is also a Namco game, whereas Turbo is not.

  • all i hear whenever my browser isnt responding, is rreeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrr SCCKKKKKKK!!!! then a few bumps.

  • DOH!!!

  • if that loud noise was thunder then the storm was on top of your house. i would crap my pants.

  • did anyone know that the lightning struck when he was exactly 250mph.

    thumbs up if u noticed

  • 250 mph = wipeout. xD

  • and u just started playing lol
