A man was recording a ground stop with his cellphone when lightning struck a Delta Airlines plane whilst it sat stationary on a runway in Atlanta.
YouTube user Jack Perkins wasn’t able to board his flight Tuesday because of terrible weather moving through the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport area. His intention was to share footage of the weather with his wife, according to CBS.
“While filming the line of planes all stacked up during a ground hold in Atlanta on Tuesday I happened to capture this direct lightning strike on a 737” Perkins explained on YouTube.
