747 Struck by lightning, the lightning that struck this plane was harmless, the people inside did hear the huge bang and crack of the thunder, but 747's and all commercial aircraft are designed to evade lightning, so the lightning bounced off or through pockets in the aircraft making it appear like it went straight through.

No one on board was hurt.

This video is not fake.

  • what i dont understand is why somebody decided to just randomly film the takeoff of a plane and by some coincidince lightning struck the plane the day the decided to randomly film a plane takeoff. Im not saying the video is fake but its just and odd coincidince.

  • It's a motion sensitive security camera that monitors planes take-off and land. It's recordings is because it follows motions (the aircraft) designed to monitor aircraft take-off + land.

    This is what they got in their recording it's not a coincidence it's technology at it's finest monitoring aircraft activity.

  • "The camera is operated by robot"...LMAO!!

    Are you serious? A jumpy, jittery robot placed strategically behind a building? lol

  • Dude.. nevermind.

    You don't understand anything you little immature retarded kid. If you don't like the video DON'T WATCH IT.

    Do you understand that?

    People are so retarded nowadays what's up with that, what's up with you? Morons these days wow... you obviously know nothing about airports I swear. There are motion camera's that do video tape flights, people, cars, everything that comes by when it has the time.

    Gosh you're so stupid saying stuff you don't know...........

  • That sucks

  • @BBGH2onExpert coz alot of people going it even in the clear weather how about weather like that it's not odd it's normal and the light doesn't affect the aircraft

  • GOD HATES THE JAPANESE!!!! lol jk

  • Simple things called lightning rods, they provide a place for the lightning to enter and then leave the plane, the current just passes through as if it was just wire. Buildings also have these rods, look at any moderately tall building, you may see them running down the side of the exterior walls. My old school has them.

  • Iam a aircraft structures mechnanic and ligntning strikes are so common that there are standard repairs for these in the structure repair manuals.

  • Wow...That is HORRIFYING yet truly amazing. That just comes to show that anything can happen in this world.

  • SWEET

  • I'd be crapping my pants if I was on that plane.

  • Amtrak doesn't Fly

  • @xxzone1 and actually the lightning wasn't "harmless" it's because the plane isn't grounded the lightning can't do any damage to the plane if it's not grounded
