Doesn't sound good that a capacitor is frying up and exploding in a lightning storm.

Tomar mucho comer

I see pesky app

Qmi tengo miedo eso transformador

In my cousins house a transformer exploded so my cousin is safe and im glad he is okay

منضر راءع😊 33000v Miro Viro

Nice video of an arc flashover but there was no transformer on that pole to explode. It was simply an arc at a fuse holder.

Hate to burst your bubble, but that wasn't a "transformer explosion", it was a fusible link going off. Transformer explosions are far more violent and produce prodigious fireballs into the sky from the combusting mineral oil.

Why do they fail?

That’s a capacitor bank

Yeah, I think lightning got it. They should probably get checked out.

We just experienced same on our street.

There is no transformer on that pole ....looks like an insulator cracked & shorted ...?

Dude I heard this, this morning! I didn’t know what I heard but this confirms it

Had one blow up across the road from my house like two years ago. Never forgotten it.

When i was little, a transformer exploded. I was distraught because i thought optimus prime had died.

LoL explosion on the vain 0:49

I just had this happen last night . Imagine this being about 20-30ft outside the bedroom window at 1 AM. I woke up from I think a lightning strike and saw strobe/flashing through closed curtains . Still groggy, I opened the curtains just as the brightest explosion at the end was bursting. Literally blinded me for 5-10 sec. It was intense.

looks like a capacitor bank, with a faulty cutout.

I hope you werent looking right at it, thats as bright as a welder

0:49 SOLAR FLARE!

i felt like i had this today when it occurred the room was shaking as like it was a universal studios ride i looked at my window and it was shaking there dont think i have transformers near my house

Very scary i was at work today n the sky lit up 5 times after a Storm so we drove around the corner and they lights was all out

When I was younger before i move in an other house, there was a transformer right in front of my house and sometimes when we were losing power it was doing a big ‘’BOOM’’ and it was soo scary

did anyone realized that when the transformer exploded, there was a black out

I saw 5 during the storm right now

Beautiful

Just happened in my neighborhood, huge explosive buzzing sound and light illuminating the night sky, nearly made me shit my pants lmao

I seen one explode before it was crazy.

Cool footage

My street it blew up all the post because of a metal cut a cable then someone was in danger. Another cable fall into someone's stomach, imagination that pain happens to you 💀

Anyone watching this in 2022?

Luckily this rarely happens anywhere

It looks dangerous due to it exploding twice... Now I remember how dangerous it actually is.

so bright it blanks out the camera for an instant
