I hope they have a really, really good grounding system in that building!
I’ve seen many lightning photos in the past of the previous tallest building in the world, the CN Tower. I live across the street from it actually so over the years I’ve seen some pretty good lightning storms which are incredible to see. Thanks for sharing this Fawzi, it brings back some fond storm memories.
incredible~
it looks like the building itself is creating those lightning!
I remember the Frankenstein monster…
It looks like secene from SF movie.
Agree with Jeff Geerling: hope they have a really, really good grounding system in that building!
Seriously awesome photos. Wow. Haven’t seen something like that.
Seems like a huge tesla coil ;)
They should capture that electro energy!
I confirm this is fake……
no way
6th one down would make a great iPad wallpaper :D
