Rescue 911: Two Boys vs. Lightning Strike

[@rochellegates2852]

I wish that they would Bring this wonderful show back to T.V.

[@kimberleemckeon563]

I agree with you

[@stevensuarez8023]

They did its now on justice network.

[@decembernovember3972]

[@jerridwilliams]

I agree its a great show and you can learn a lot from the show

[@sapphire_moon781]

It's on Justice Network. Channel is 13.3 UT TV Network by Fox 13

Good on the parents for starting CPR, even as scared as they were.

[@randygreen8916]

William Shatner did a great job Hosting this Show.

[@george196161]

When thunder roars get indoors!

[@jfournerat1274]

That is very good advice.

[@Keeper92885]

I really wish theyd bring back this show for more modern stories. I remember watching the reruns in the 90s as a kid and it was pretty relevent then. No one had cellphones yet and most didnt have cordless phones yet in the early 90s. Now the world has changed and we have different emergencies and different responses. I will continue to love the crap out of Rescue 911 but itd be nice to see it come back and maybe teach todays kids how to appropriately respond to an emergency situation.

Never stand or sit under trees during a storm.

[@ljmcdonald2703]

Or be outside

Don't sit under power poles either

Nobody’s going outside until the rain stopped and no one is going outside until the warm sun comes out!!

[@alemarion]

Ah, yes. The animated lightning. The wonderous technology of the late 80s and early 90s.

[@yashstravastava8359]

This is incredible

[@BellyLover06]

This is one reason why you never reside under a tree. They were lucky the tree wasn't hit directly or it would've sent shrapnel into them.

I can just imagine Flanders holding up a sign saying "God is watching"

[@elyssabarry9291]

I remember seeing the rescue of the kid from the tree while the flood waters rushed by when it actually happened on TV news. Would definitely watch this show if it came back on.

WoW!😖😖

[@RydiaLS83]

I almost got hit by lightning. I was 5 years old. in 1988. I was playing T-ball in our town baseball little league. out of no where a storm came up in middle of the game. they call off the game. while my mom and I was were running to the car. lightning strike the pitcher mount. it happen so fast. I don't remember my mom and I falling to the grown, I remember we black out for a few sec. lucky no one got hurt. just shaken up. Since then I have big fear of lightning.

[@JasonSmith-vg8ew]

As a 44 year old man this brought tears to my eyes. This is scary...

[@CMDRFandragon]

So the phrase "that wad a shocking experience" takes on a new meaning for these people.

[@ILoveOldTWC]

The time of year makes perfect sense. It's a summer evening in mid to late July in the Southeastern United States on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. The pop up afternoon and evening thunderstorms are very, very typical. It can go from sunny to storming very quickly.

[@mothership9207]

I moved to Gulfport in 1989 and for the longest time you could still see the 2 trees every time driving down Courthouse Rd. I’ll be going back down the same road here in a little while and if traffic is not too bad I’ll look to see if I can still see the trees, the area has grown up a little bit over the years though.

[@derekkinman1218]

People in real life never stay outside on a thunderstorm because lightning can shock you very dangerously. sincerely derek kinman

[@alexandergrube6437]

That's some top notch Lightning animation

[@NathanChisholm041]

Look like it was done in MS paint!

[@equarg]

I knew a man who had a bolt of lightning strike 5 feet from him on a nice day! He initially felt fine, but the forest service boss ordered him to take the next day off! The next day he had the shakes, vomited repeatedly, and got sick! He now stays indoors at the mere threat of thunderstorms! 🌩=Nope for him!

[@58twright]

Wow

[@lilibethmelendes3157]

the lighting is real see the video aging

[@travispavich1694]

Oh my god people. Yes, of course the Lightning was fake. It was a reenactment. It even says before the video this is a reenactment.

[@thomasnativo6491]

bartsimpson67543 isn't not joke When Thunder Roard Go indoors . I'm always indoors because I hate dark clouds and Thunder and Lightning and you can't expect a Tornado to happen with Without warning

[@jennmartin5199]

tornados it depends on were u live but yah I agree when thunder roars get your ass indoors Iam afraid of lighting gives me anxiety I don't even have to wait to hear thunder I see dark clouds I run for the house I have the weather channel app on my phone sends me warnings if they a storm about to come

[@bloodwash]

This is the episode that made me scared of lightning. I was a kid when I seen this and I'm scared till this day.

This is why I refuse to be outside if there’s lightning.

[@amymamabear5227]

It wasn’t even really a storm you guys, it was about to be a coastal afternoon rain! And now we all know that about lightening, but they were literally just kids

[@brandonkelly8383]

Is that Gulfport, MS?

[@celinebastarache1840]

Lightning and voltage. Are two things that people should be aware of dangers the voltage of your house when somebody gets ahold of a cable is like a big magnet you cannot take your hands off of it ,it draws you towards a plug-in and you can't lot let go pretending sensation goes through your body your hands and your fingers are numb you try to get away but still cannot do it !your hurt will be beat faster, it is a dangerous environment when you're beside,(Hydro or electrical storms)it can mean life or death !

[@USAIRFORCE621]

These boys made a critical error. As the old saying goes "when thunder roars get indoors". By staying outside under a tree of all places they literally put themselves in a very bad situation to be struck by lightning! Hopefully they learned from their mistake, in addition frantic parents don't help the situation.

[@patriciawickholm3617]

Really? LOL!

[@ILoveOldTWC]

That's what the National Weather Service says. The parents were frantic, but performed lifesaving CPR despite that.

yes it's true never take shelter under a tree during a thunderstorm

[@VickiBee]

Try having it really happen. My sister was in a near drowning, was without oxygen for too long & now has severe traumatic brain injury. She CAN'T "just get a job" and anyone with a brain themselves would know it just by looking at her. She wouldn't even make it through the interview for god's sake. She might be able to get a job at Goodwill Industries but they don't TRY to get her one. The people supposed to be working with her are lazy IMO if they don't even try to find her work and then claim she doesn't work. They're being paid to HELP her. Why don't THEY think of it?

I wonder if they are still friends.

@@patriciawickholm3617 plus kids keep thinking "erroneously" that the tree will "protect them" because it is not metal, also many do not realize lightning can happen even while is not raining yet.
