Quite possibly the coolest thing I've ever seen. Unreal.

I saw that video about 3 months ago - I thought I found it on wikipedia Lightning page but I can't see it there now.

My kids and I watched it over and over again for 5-10 minutes.

They were blown away by it (so was I!).

Probly one of the cameramen at a one dayer cricket match during a break for rain. Decided to aim the super slomo at the heavens.

Whoever it was .. they've got a fantastic reward.

Oooo. Aaaah!
Love shots like that.
I remember seeing a docco some years ago were they discovered the main "punch" from lightning actually comes 'up' from the ground.
Really cool! Thanks for posting it.
Peter

You're welcome, folks.

Jeff, I'd recommend you right-click and save the image before it gets removed or is taken down for whatever reason.

Cheers.
