Have you ever heard the expression “Lightning never strikes the same place twice”? It is frequently used to comfort us by saying that improbable or unexpected situations will not occur again. Is this, however, a true statement? Let’s take a look at a popular video that calls this assumption into question.
We see an intriguing phenomenon in a video provided on the Twitter feed ‘O Terrifying,’ which challenges the concept that lightning never strikes the same area twice. The video has gained over 1.6 million views and 10,000 likes, enthralling netizens.
Despite common opinion, lightning can and does strike the same location several times. This might happen during the same storm or millennia later.
The video depicts a rare occurrence in which lightning strikes a certain point on a body of water repeatedly, leaving us in wonder and filled with both intrigue and dread.
The video, shot from a boat or yacht, shows two bolts of lightning striking virtually the same area within seconds. As lightning strikes the sky and lands on the water’s surface, the person behind the camera finds refuge inside the boat. We hear her shout in the background, “I got that on video, Jimmy,” preserving the emotional moment for posterity.
