Sure looks fake. Seems like the only coverage of it seems to be linked to the video. I feel like if this were a credible story, we'd have heard about it happening from legitimate news sources before the video made its way online.

Lightning strikes are incredibly loud and incredibly bright. At night a lightning strike that close would absolutely white out a camera with a night filter on. It wouldn't just be a little blue flash in the corner of the screen. And would have clipped the audio rather than a perfectly piped in "thunder" sound effect.

I'm calling BS and poor taste.

I've been close to 2 lightning strikes in my life, both directly outside the building I was in. The thing that surprised me the most was the heat, we had windows open with screens on. It was like instantly standing next to a blast furnace then it was gone. The flash and thunder were both intense as well, but the most striking part was definitely the heat.

He agreed to do it though.

"Hey Drew, want to do a dumb publicity stunt?

I was fishing on a pier in oak island NC , I was at the very end of the pier where the king mackerel fisherman fish at,I'm probably around 11-13 years old at the time I was fishing in heavy rain like a dummy and only person on the pier except for one old old man 

 

I'm thinking to myself I'm going to start packing everything up and reel in the lines soon as I picked up my fishing pool BOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!¡! Lightning hit me! But come to find out the lightning strike bolt stop thousands or hundreds of feet in the air above me and what I got hit by was the energy that was left from that bolt so I guess u can say I was lucky or not idk...

 

But boy I will never forget that day all that got hurt that day was my led and foot was burned a tad bit nothing bad and my pride lol. 

 

But NOW because of that day fishing on that pier if I'm in a boat or anything in get caught in a storm I'm booking it to nearest land lol

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out.

      I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
