    7:36 the water is only electrified when the lightning bolt is connected to the water. Once it gets disconnected, it’s no longer electrified.

      No it wont bc its too quick. Not enough time to heat all that water. A smaller amount it could but it would take hundreds of simultaneous strikes to heat that pool.

    One of, if not the scariest moment I've ever had driving was a few years after I got my first car late 2000s I was driving and a lightning bolt struck about 5 feet (1.5m) to the front left of my car. I didn't feel anything as far as static etc but it still scared the shit out of me lol

    I've had something similar to the claw machine (or whatever kind of game machine that was)happen to me before. I played a claw machine right after it had been refilled and I went for something in the back of the machine. I didn't get it all the way up and the claw dragged it forward, causing the item and a bunch of other stuff to fall into the prize hole.

    4:36 The car is of course sitting on the four rubber tires, so if you aren't touching anything metal directly in the car, you're fine even if lightning hits the outside metal of the car directly.
    4:48 A lot of people are just doing these "one-off" videos using CGI. There's a reason why there aren't hundreds of them on the ground. They did 'get it' on the first try - they simply edited the video later to make it go in.

    I had a near death experience that could rival some of these. I was working on a road crew paving an interstate, I was walking ahead of the line collecting asphalt receipts from the dump truck drivers when a small Chevy truck came flying through the cones at about 70mph and missed me by just a few feet. Later my foreman told me it was an elderly man that fell asleep at the wheel and woke up and swerved around me just before slamming me into the dump truck I was standing next to. They would have been finding pieces of me everywhere with how fast he was moving. Man I've never felt an adrenaline rush like that before, I was jumping up and down laughing and cussing for a solid 10 seconds and couldn't sit still for another few hours 🤣
    The old man came to a safe stop by the way, no injuries or damage...besides his paint job, he was throwing tack up everywhere (that's the sticky shit we spray on a surface before laying the asphalt in case you didn't know) and that stuff is very difficult to remove without taking paint off with it

      Pffft a few feet? Brother I got grazed on my forearm by a van going over 40 crossing some lanes at night and another time I was one step short of getting hit by a bus 🚌 anyway I've learned not to walk around the city with my headphones on whilst drunk I tend to forget to look both ways before crossing the road🤷‍♂️

    Being in a car that is hit by lightning is scary but as long as you are not touching the metal you are safe. It happened to me in 1974. I saw a brief glimpse of hit my right front hood. Then there was a blinding flash and my radio was making a loud screeching sound. Yes, scary.

    We had a tornado come through our yard a year or so ago, took our trampoline and threw it about 2000 ft up towards the highway. My dad went and tied a rope to it and his truck to drag it back home…..a big gust of wind came and threw the trampoline in the air again and the rope caught it and jerk it back down on my dads truck busting out his front window….lol

    I have driven a car that was almost hit by lightning before. That was...an experience. The bolt struck ground a few feet in front of me while I was driving down the road. I was a bit surprised how close that was, but nothing happened to me outside of an unexpected light show to make sure I was awake on the road. lol
    After that, I looked up what would've happened online if I was hit by lightning and discovered from several sources that the car acts like a Faraday cage where the electricity from the lightning bolt travels around the outside metal frame before finding it's way to the ground shielding you from it. Just stay off your phone (especially if you have it connected to the car charger, DON'T TOUCH IT) and don't touch anything metal, or any of the electronics in the car until it's over. You may lose your phone if it's on the car charger when lightning hits and/or you may have some electrical components get fried and/or the airbags may deploy on you, but you'll be alive.
    It's also my understanding that cars with soft tops like convertibles and jeeps where it's common to take the top off won't protect you as well and the hard tops will do better. I think the lightning bolt being so hot would just burn through a soft top whereas the metal hard tops on regular cars are what allows the cars to act as a Faraday cage.
    Also lightning bolts are very hot and can melt your tires so don't be surprised if you need new tires on top of everything and don't be that one person who thinks it's a good idea to change a tire in a lightning storm (it's not).
    In rare cases it can start a fire in the car so if you smell/see anything burning get out quickly and find alternative shelter from the storm. The car's antenna is a prime target for lighting bolts too so don't be surprised if it at least knocks out your radio.
    Older cars may fare better though. Today's newer cars have onboard computers, and a lot more electronics in them than the old cars did so there's more potential for things getting fried and needing repairs after a lightning strike, but you inside the car should still be shielded from the lightning strike.
    As always, look it up yourself from some reputable sources for what would happen to your car and plan accordingly. For example, I honestly don't know how an electric car like a Telsa would fare if it got hit by lightning considering it's carrying a sizable lithium-ion battery with it and lightning strikes are known to fry electronics in newer cars so....one would THINK they would've accounted for it in the design....but we also know how car manufacturers have been caught cutting corners....

    Lightning and water depending on what is in the water dissolved in it pure water isn't that great but water with salt perfect for zapping someone. Thanks that was fun.

    The sailboat at 10:00 was not drifting. It was taking part in a regatta - sailboat races. The boat it came close to was responsible for tending the race course marks, one of which was the big red inflatable thing in the clip. I’ve done that job. Close encounters between boats are commonplace in a race, so racing skippers and crews are comfortable with close maneuvers. That particular maneuver was a little closer than most, and close encounters with race committee boats are unusual (the sailboat skipper was probably annoyed that the mark tender was where it shouldn’t be, but not willing to give up any race position to make a less risky maneuver); but still, that particular clip wasn’t all that spectacular to someone familiar with competitive sailing, and the girls in the mark boat seemed pretty nonplussed.

      @@rg20322 The key to being safe in a car is to keep the windows closed. Open windows allow lightening to travel into the car and that is not good. Also do not touch anything made of metal inside the car.

    Our Maintenance warehouse needed some work on the roof top equipment, when I got up there there were 3- 5 gallon buckets worth of Golf Balls up there, there was an apartment complex behind with a large open area where I guess they practiced golf by dropping them on our roof, I was playing golf then as were many of my co-workers. I didn't buy another ball for a long time.

    I believe the reason the toaster in the bath tub or electric lanturn in the pond thing you hear about works is they are still producing the electricity while under the water. When the lightning strikes the surface of the water it is mellowed out similar to how an electric current cannot go through rock. I mean think about it. We talk about how umbrellas are dangerous to use in a lightning storm but usually it is raining at that point. If it simply took getting wet to stop it then we wouldnt be harmed because the umbrella would be wet. The umbrella acts as a rod to not only attract the lightning but it can be used to hurt the person holding it through it instead of the water. It has less area to level out before dissapaiting completely on a thin rod instead of the wide ground or surface of a pool. Not to mention copper and some other metals are good conducters of electricity thats why it is attracted to the umbrella. Also why electric wires or cords have copper wiring entangled with a rubber coating on the outside. The rubber stops the electricity from hurting anything the copper wires touch. You might see some mechanics or electricians cut some wiring and twist the end. Thats because they are twisting the copper wiring together and closing the rubber around it. It would have an impact on the waters surface in this but if it dissapated before he touched it he should be alright. It did look like it hit right before he went in but was after he jumped. It doesnt take too much time to disappear once the connection is severed. Afterall lightning moves super fast.
