Video of lightning hitting our flagpole at work

[Notgrownup]

So last Thursday we had a severe thunderstorm in the area. It shook my house twice in the evening. Well I started to get alarm calls . Next morning I had to go reset a bunch of breakers and found our part of our fire alarm system was fried. Wasn’t sure what caused it at first but we found out the lightning hit our flagpole, fried our flagpole lights, travelled to our pump house, fried our sprinkler system control then travelled to our fire system. I isolated the video from our security cameras. Wanted to share with y’all. I can’t attach it but here are some pictures the first being the flagpole top ball with a hoke in it. The 2nd is like a trench was dug

I don’t know how is the best way to share the video.

youtube, tik tok, tinder, instagram, or make a gif out of it.

We have lightning rods all over our roof and on top of all the equipment. Always wonder if it'll work.

Video works fine @Notgrownup ...Might want to reconsider the channel name. Looks like you've had it for years, but this is your first video? Your full name and exact location are visible. Just sayin'.

Thanks mrb1. I am new to that. I will have to get better at that. Plus the file is from my work camera so I just deleted it.
