    THANKS so much for all the comments! Everything here is fine. Our electrial grid got minor damage and our gas line is damaged. I just THANK GOD we were home.

    • @stphinkle
      @stphinkle Před 8 lety

      I would suggest rerouting the gas line so it is not in the proximity of the main grounding stick, and in a way that lightning cannot hit it easily.

      Same here I have a fear of being struck by lightning so your not alone

  • @craigs3183
    @craigs3183 Před 8 lety

    After watching this video, I'm glad your house didn't burn down from a direct lightning strike. The surge caused your breakers to trip. Never run a ground wire near a gas line or use it as a grounding rod. Best advice that I can say is make sure u get your breaker panel checked out after this. Could have internal damage. Been an electrician for close to 20 years.

  • @andreapaolucci7380
    @andreapaolucci7380 Před 8 lety

    Wow, just goes to show that a fire can start at anytime. It was a good thing that Andrew knew how to deal with the situation quickly before it escalated. Hope the insurance company can clean up the hole and other damage quickly!

  • @Dana_Danarosana
    @Dana_Danarosana Před 8 lety

    I'm so glad you, your wife, and your home are safe. Just a thought... I was of the assumption that all gas and water plumbing is supposed to be bonded to the grounding pin/system unless the plumbing is non-metallic. Maybe that's just Minnesota code. But, under that scenario, the arc wouldn't have happened as the paths of conductivity would've been parallel. (If A is connected to B, B is connected to A.) Just something to consider to keep yourselves and your home safe during the storms of Summer.

She was asking you to stop filming (possibly because she didn't want to be on camera), so I don't know if she would want to be edited out of the video. I'm glad no one was hurt, and that the ElevaTOURS elevator museum was not damaged.
