Omg!!!

[Squeeky]

A friend of mine Gerbs took this video on May 1st, 2003, at 1:15am EST

Video

27 seconds into the video, a MASSIVE lightning strike lights up his house and his video camera and you can hear the enormous rumble of thunder seconds later. Make sure to have your sound turned up or you wont get the full affect

Here is a pic of the weather in that area at the time the strike took place, Gerbs house is indicated by a Red Square!

Included is the AIM log for giggles.
