Footage that will send shivers down your spine
From one of the windows on a plane, a passenger filmed quite an impressive scene. Their plane was travelling through a period of quite terrifying lightning flashes for a few minutes. Because the footage was taken during the night, it’s easier to see the lightning and we can see just how close it gets to the aircraft! We can easily imagine how terrified and panicked the passengers on the flight must have felt!
Phenomena that could get worse
Luckily, the pilot was trained and skilled enough to be able to pass through the lightning and land safely.
