Close Lightning Strike - Edmonton July 18

Randomly started filming the thunderstorm in Edmonton, Alberta, tonight at around 11 PM and BOOOM a lightning strikes about 50 feet away and i'm like ahhhh!

Don't know what's with the delay of about 1 second to hear the sound after the lightning strikes, there were 2 forks though so it was like the closer one had no thunder :P

I remember that storm. R u on the northside? There were some CRAZY ass storms here this summer!!

[darrenvh]

@NiteOwl1224 Yeah this was in the Castle Downs area. I'm in BC now but my sis lives in Leduc, so I heard that exactly 2 years later (July 18, 2011) there was another wind/lightning storm like this!! Only this time it happened early in the morning, and might have even been crazier than the storm in the video

@sxychiklet If I were to fake this, I'd make it look 100 times better :P

Ok, not fake, but not real either, hummm, ok you got me there! What is it then? A waste of my time perhaps? You owe me a dollar for wasting my valuable time LOL.

Wow, should have watched the entire video before I went into after effects (Photoshop) and went frame by frame..
