Reactions to the video included:

“This happened to a palm tree in my front yard and it just turned into a long stick with a charred tip.”

“Thinking about how the sky shoots out a fire that can kill you is crazy…. What is life,” commented Tanja Jutanda.

“I saw lightning strike a tree outside my apartment like this before. I physically jumped and screamed, and its rattle was so intense to the building that my neighbor’s ceiling fan fell. I know this because we all went out into the hallway after to see if people were okay. Thunder is the sound of lightning, and I’m telling you… That shit within feet of you is so loud,” shared user Molivia.
