'Whoa!' Lightning Strike Startles Ferry Riders as Thunderstorm Hits Plymouth, England

A lightning bolt was captured striking off the Plymouth Sound as thunderstorms rolled through the area in the morning hours of September 8.

This video was taken by Billy Hole, who unleashed a few swear words as he filmed the moment the lightning struck near the Plymouth Pier while aboard a local ferry.

“Excuse the language, but this is a strike!” he wrote in the video’s caption. Credit: Billy Hole via Storyful
