Sound travels through air at a speed of about 330 metres per second, or about 1 kilometre every 3 seconds. Light travels through air at close to 300,000 kilometres per second, or approximately 900,000 times as fast as sound. So the light from a lightning strike reaches our eyes in a fraction of a millisecond, while the sound (thunder) takes 3 seconds multiplied by the distance in kilometres between us and the lightning stroke. Because the time it takes the light to reach us is so small in comparison to the time it takes the sound to reach us, the interval of time between the moment we see the lightning and the moment we hear the thunder is for all intents and purposes essentially equal to the time it takes the sound to travel from the lightning stroke to us. Therefore by dividing (the time in seconds between the moment we see the lightning and the moment we hear the thunder) by 3, we can obtain the approximate distance in kilometres between the closest part of the lightning stroke and us. For example, if we hear the thunder 15 seconds after we see the lightning, then the distance to the closest part of the lightning stroke is approximately 5 seconds.
@@michaelscott4465 Yeah, we're fine. RIP to the guy though, totally unlucky what happened to him. Heard that he got hit by a gas bottle and then had a traumatic heart attack afterwards.
Sounds like a bombing. I have also similar expirience with thunderstorms not like that but i lived in vilage Miljkovac where located in South east Serbia near city Niš. Thunderstorms in that vilage was similar scary like this. But things which make situation worse are many huge green ash trees in our backyard around our house.
@@michaelscott4465 Me Too. Also I Hate EVERY Rains. Cause I Fear Those Rains Will Have/Produces Thunder & Lightning. Also Those Lightning Flash Haunts My Visual. Even The Weather Where I Live Isn't Raining. That's Why I Had Phobia Against Thunder & Lightning, Also Rains.

I love watching thunderstorms like this.
Me too!
I don’t
They scare me
@@PrinceEmerald420 then don’t watch them
@@KoId. If you are afraid, it's good to not watch scary thunderstorms that you're sensitive to.
It’s thunder storming rn in syd
Beautiful ☺️, till this day thunderstorms are frightening to be in but colorful and striking to watch. I would watch from indoors with tea.

In short:
340 X seconds = Lightning Distance.
@@aliultimate009or just use an app and it tells you. 😂
The noise at 2:02 and 2:52 have vibrated my device
Banger of a storm mate !
I love pink lighting 👍 that was amazing
in Brazil the sound of the thunders is like a war, scary
now i understand why in the lyrics of men at work down under has thunder, and thunder dome in mad max movie, must be about this
my god that is some intense lighting and thunder! 2:02 i think was the biggest rumble of thunder
Was indeed, my dad was saying the lightning struck less than a km away
@@michaelscott4465 what about 2.52?
@@garethmunene567 2:52 strike just hit a tree beside a house located in front. It was a thunder crack.
You have to watch the extreme thunders of a thunderstorm filmed in Hamburg in 2008! These were so loud and strong!
This sound is an ideal sound for sleeping tonight, :) .
Waoo beautiful Lightnings 👍⚡️⚡️Super video. I am also fascinated by storms.
2:52 had to be a +CG, there was absolutely no branching at all, way brighter and louder.
that is actually a really powerful -CG, I've captured an exact same one, it's on my channel somewhere
I love that sound so much, it's so satisfying lol
We just had a thunderstorm here in Ontario and I’m not kidding you the lightning was flashing non stop for 1 minute straight!!
wow that's crazy!
Michael Romanis Yeah!
that's nothing watch brisbane's storms.
@Ayzlxn
This means that the storm cell is highly charged which can be a sign of a severe thunderstorm.
Me too. But I don't live in Canada yet dude. I live here in the United States but it has a lot of lightning strikes recorded by people.
once you here those crickets you know there is part two to the storm

We proofed it thunders are pink not just blue or white
Thunder is a sound not something you can see.
@@donnawoodman6249 lol 🤣
The storms here are, far more powerful at times.. and this is from Ottawa Ontario, where we get fuckin tornadoes now for some reason
we get tornadoes as well
There was a scream when lightning hit at 2:52
My mum hates thunderstorms 😅
Me Too 😅
