1. A clip from Discovery Channel's "Raging Planet" on the subject of lightning. If you find lightning a facinating and beautiful force, then check this clip out. The camera technology has gotten to where scientists have been able to record and playback a lightning strike at over 200X slower with really cool results.
2.Durham native and Jordan High School graduate Chris Dawson shot this video of a plane getting struck by lightning near Heathrow Airport in London.
The video has been all over the networks the past few days: an Airbus A380 getting struck by lightning while flying near Heathrow Airport in London.
3.This massive clear air bolt (cloud-to-ground lightning bolt) hit about 200-250m away from our location. Here in Darwin, Australia these bolts can leap 15-20km away from the main storm striking a dry area surrounding the storm. You don't see me in the frame for good reason as I was in my car! :P :O

The bolt hits near the base of the tree as a large puff of dust can be seen after the initial strike!
4.Footage of a passenger jet getting struck by lighting after taking off from SFO.
5. Filmed using a BlackBerry phone from a penthouse in Newcastle as my friend filmed the opposite direction with an iPhone. Cars can barely pass through the flooded underpass. The clip has been played on Sky News, BBC News and ITV News.
