hassata Posted June 26, 2011 Posted June 26, 2011 It messes with my brain that a lightening bolt is five times hotter than the surface of the sun. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

mikoyan Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 Reminds me of my dad watching the Rio carnival at 3 am in the morning on an old tv with a huge antenna during a thunderstorm; naturally my house got hit; the lighting strike hit a big tree right next to my house; blew a big branch; bounced to one corner of my house taking down a chunk of brick and cement; to finally hit the power meter. The current toasted all the electrical cables on the hose; burning telephones; vhs, fans and ultimately the tv on which my dad was watching the "garotas" lucky for him he was in the kitchen getting coffee; if not he would have experience the explosion of a 60s tv on his face!
jpm1 Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 my grand-dad was hit by a thunderbolt while he was looking the thunderstorm on his house steps in Corsica . he was thrown several meters inside the room , and some of the keys he had in his pocket entered in his knee and exited by the heel (that's what it was told to me lol) SU-25 missions [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
