Unbelievable footage of plane being struck by lightning on runway

He posted the video on Wednesday.

Apparently, lightning strikes airplanes fairly often.

The recording shows rain drenching the airfield crowded with aircraft, waiting to take off from the world’s busiest airport. It is only now that the video of the lightning strike was uploaded to YouTube.

Delta Airlines did not immediately respond to a request for comment from TheBlaze. Everything happens in the blink of an eye.

This isn’t the first time weather has shaken planes on the runway.

However, thanks to some clever engineering, any damage to the aircraft or injury to passengers and crew was avoided.

Believe it or not, Delta says all 111 passengers are okay and the plane landed safely at its destination in Las Vegas. A flash of lightning is seen hitting the tail end of the Delta jet as it sits on the tarmac.

While filming, Perkins didn’t react to the lightning bolt on the 737.
