The CCTV camera at a school in Texas, United States, captured during a thunderstorm a lightning strike whose destructive force managed to cut a tree in two.
It is admirable the power of nature and very impressive how the lightning disintegrates the tree, but when you watch the video, pay attention to another detail that was captured by the CCTV camera. Take a look at the right side of the image at the moment the lightning strikes and you will see a puff of smoke emitted from the ground a few meters from the tree. You will realize that the destructive energy of a lightning strike is not point-like but takes place over an area.
For the record, no one was injured in this incident, except for the tree that was destroyed.
