1. Imagine having a power plant generated by lightning, its free and yet powerful enough to lighten up an entire city or probably a nation. Why haven't the scientist figured out how to harness it? We have the sun, wind, water and lightning as the source of free renewable energy and yet we're still depending on gas to support our lives, why??? Oh yes, just as Thomas Edison said to Tesla, it's bad for bussiness 👀.

2. How does the tunder sound echoes…. Should there not be a hard dome.???

5. IF THUNDER CLOUDS CREATED LIGHTNING THEN WHEN THE CLOUDS STAND STILL IT MAKE NO DIFFERENT WHY ? IT IS NOT WRONG SIR

6. WHY 90% OF THEM HAPPEN AT NIGHT?

7. Slow mo videos of lightning shows otherwise. Lightning actually creeps from the clouds, branching out like roots, til contact is made with the ground, then all the charge is dumped through the connected plasma, and propagation of branches that haven't reached the ground immediately terminate. it doesn't flash back up and down, it hits the ground and is dumped like a static charge being neutralised.

8. If we could harness this power, we would be free of oil and gas.

9. Anyone from UK watching after the storm we just had

10. if the brain was able to react to this like birds, would we be able to know when the rain is passing by?
