It happens because the cloud dust are high in static charges and lightning is attracted to that and it hits the volcano because it's the closest thing to the charged particles and in needs to be grounded. It happens at a right place in a right time.
It's so amazing that it happens like that. I can only imagine how ancient peoples must have felt witnessing this erupting volcano also come alive with lightning all around it. No wonder they assigned divine causes to it, how else could you explain such an awe-inspiring sight?
That's quite wrong. Pyroclastic clouds generate their own lightning through massive friction, just like clouds do. In this case, the negative charges in the ash cloud connected to the positive charges in the clouds above, which made it branch upwards instead of usual downwards, that's a positive lightning, it's a lot louder and powerful, and lasts longer.
@@bettyleeist It's a volcano actually. Volcanoes have lava inside and they smoke ash clouds and erupt. Mountains are very big and they have a pointy thing on top and it has a lot of snow.

That was so cool that I paused the video at the beginning, only to realize I didn’t have to if I kept watching it to the end… thank you for the slow mo.
What this shows, is the density of the material in the cloud. It looks like a cloud but it is actually pulverized solid material. That cloud became the tallest stucture relaitve to the ground around it. This drew the lightning to it. What a fantastic piece of video. The person recording it should be very proud to have captured a once in a lifetime video.
Thats the most incredible thing. How rare is this!? What are the actual odds of lightning striking and a volcano erupting at the same time. Its like a once in 100 lifetimes event. Maybe even more
@@Itsmeagain828 I'm lamenting that this is such an incredible moment, instead of having a full screen video for the future to witness, it will forever be formatted for a mobile phone.
Super spectacular 🤩 ⚡️ was there an electrical storm close by ? I do know Volcanoes release lightning without nearby storms but I thought I heard some rumbling at the start. Play that last bit of audio out loud at night in the forest lol
I think it's lightning from volcanic activity, though there is a storm going on around it. The lightning bolt jolts up into the cumulonimbus (thundercloud) above it because of polarity differences.
If you play the video back in slow motion, it actually looks like the lightning came OUT of the volcano, which is 100% possible. There is scientific evidence that supports that lightning can, in fact, form inside a volcano's plume.
@@AK-47ISTHEWAY I've seen footage of volcanic lightning. But it stays within the volcanic cloud. I've never seen volcanic lightning interact with the sky. This was a cloud to ground strike that just happened to coincide with a small eruption. The volcanic cloud was not big enough to generate its own lightning. But it sure did look incredible!
This is NOT a lightning strike at the volcano. This is an upward discharge from the volcano. You can tell by watching the lightning branch from the source, just like it always does.
I have watched too many movies to understand that this event is something that a Super villain's doing to summon the creature that will wipe out humanity , hope the protagonist save this year .

I suddenly remembered something I really must doing somewhere else.
Lol
Like fr.
real reaction 😂
Makes sense - a lot of iron in the magma, giving a clear path for the lightning.
No wonder it's called Volcan del Fuego
not to mention all the friction of the tiny dust particles passing by each other.
Among other things

Volcano: **erupts**

well who wouldn't make a racket if you were Typhon and had a literal mountain above your own person
🌋⚡NATURE FACT: The lightning strike was actually caused by a rad dude shredding on an electric guitar🎸 at the volcano's base.
And his name is Eddie Van Halen!
with the pick of destiny
Guitar said, WeeeeeeeeWaaaaaooow

the lightning is caused by the volcano not the other way around

No
Or Old School Metallica.
No not really. Heavy Metal yes, Iron Maiden not so much. For instance Ram it Down cover by Priest is way closer to this than any Maiden album
If you do .25 speed @ 0:43 you can see the individual lightning frames. pretty rad
Oh my gosh, that was so bright, like on a screen. But can’t imagine seeing it in real life.

That’s not lightning striking a volcano. That’s a volcanos lightning striking the clouds.
Still, it’s a cool thing to see
The cloud shape like a heart was given life by the lightning strike. Pretty awesome.
Love the demonic dinosaurs at the end 😂

What an unbelievable sight.
location?
Guatemala
It's actually coming FROM the volcano.
Volcanos often create lightning with all the particles they stir up making static.
Why did it seem to stop the eruption?
WHERE ??
Does anyone know what volcano erupted?
This is the true power of mother nature . Absolutely astonishing and humbling.
And it was filmed in portrait mode for all of history to see... great.
You can look at it in portrait mode, too, if you just pause it and scroll the time and swipe up as you're doing it, and it will cut it into portraits.

So awsome!
This lightning was not caused by the eruption, but by a thunderstorm as there was lightning flashing around away from the volcano
Whose video is this? "A spectator" isn't quite giving them credit.
Full video please

That came out of the volcano. It’s an awesome phenomenon.
This is NOT a lightning strike at the volcano. This is an upward discharge from the volcano. You can tell by watching the lightning branch from the source, just like it always does.
Everyone so LOUND
Considering the delay of the sound, this was filmed at about 1,2 km of distance.
Looks more like the lightning strike came out of the volcano? So it hit the atmosphere and not the other way around?
Lightnig comes from the ground...
Beautiful 😍
All the drunk yelling ruins it
Nature is just incredible. Wow.
is that that a hear a storm last morning? Cuz I live in Philippines 😅
All fun and games until you realize Mordor is forming.
Wait. Why is everyone waiting next to a Volcano looking to erupt
This wasn't "lightning strike" from an external source; the static from the eruption causes this.
It is a natural event?
Spectacular!
Stupid title. The lightning is coming from the ash cloud, it's not striking the volcano
Where?
The power of nature is impressive
The volcano made its own lighting.
0:10 Clash of the Gods!!!
The volcano was not struck by lightning, per se. This is a ground to air discharge, not air to ground.

One benefit of living close to an active volcano: your house does not need a lightning arrester.

Nature: I see you like this volcano, little humans
Nature: How would you like

can only imagine teh true sound on top of this mountain and having lighting that close

How's there ice particles in volcano ash?
This is volcanic lightning; lightning didn't hit the volcano the volcano made the lightning. -_-
