    Billy, usually the words 'Trust me' are an invitation to disaster, but you are right, that video is awesome.

    Those above the cloud lightning discharges are incredible. I think I remember seeing a doco on lightning strikes, and what we see is a tiny spark compared to what happens on top of the cloud.

    Thanks for the link Mate.
    Cheers

    Life is like a camera, focus on what's important, capture the good times, develop from the negatives and if things don't work out take another shot

    The auroras look amazing too.

    If I was up in the space station, I doubt I'd get much work done.
    I'd just be staring, gobsmacked, at the earth all the time!

    Great find William.
    Thanks for sharing.

    Very enjoyable footage. Though it looks similar to one I saw last year, but with different music.
