Lightning in Slow Motion
(YouTube link)
This bolt of lightning was shot in high speed video, then slowed way down for your entertainment. -via reddit
That’s crazy. I never realized how it sort of searches for a target and once it finds one…BOOM!
Incredisome! O_o As said, the searching it performs is something I’ve never seen before. It gives lightning a different character, a bit more evil as it actively locates a target by itself, stretching out, but also a bit mechanical as it uses a premade path once it has located where to go… I got to stop watching this now, I can feel it approaching my back!
What is freakier is that everything on the ground sends out its own seeking leader and it’s when a leader from the air meets a leader coming up from the ground that you get a giant electrical discharge. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning#Leader_formation
