Lightning Strikes Leon Cathedral

Occurred on September 18, 2024 / Leon, Nicaragua

Info from Licensor: "We were having a beer at a bar facing the cathedral of Leon Nicaragua, a UNESCO world heritage site, watching a crazy lightning storm with strikes all around. I felt the urge to film the cathedral. All of a sudden, everything went deadly quiet. I was watching the cathedral and bang, lightning strikes the top of the cathedral in an almost biblical moment. The sky was ablaze with light and the strike hit right next to the Jesus figure on the top of the cathedral. It was a crazy moment I’ll never forget and I think the best lightning strike I’ve seen caught on camera. This happened this year September 18th at 6:45pm. There is a photo of the strikes impact on the cathedral the staff took."
