Thunderstrike ! ! !
Our student, Simon T. Vammen 2z, managed to take rare photographs of a hearby lightning stroke hitting the mobile phone mast at our neighbour school.
As demonstrated on the images above - the light flash is almost blinding.
During such a hit - the electrical power will heat the atmosphere to a temperature above 30 000 Degrees Celsius.
The hot lightening channel stays visible on several movie frames.
