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

      Tomorrow is a must win

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      If we lose tomorrow we’d have to sweep the Bucs in order to get into the playoffs. With a loss tomorrow the Bucs would then hold the tie breaker if we finished tied If we can’t split with NO then we sure as hell not sweeping Tampa It’s win or go home tomorrow in my eyes  Biggest game since 2017 playoff game imo

      Grok AI: No, there are no credible reports that the Carolina Hurricanes offered Jake Guentzel the same contract terms as Tampa Bay (7 years, $63 million total, $9 million AAV) before he signed with the Lightning. Reliable sources, including The Athletic, consistently reported that Carolina’s offer during negotiations was an eight-year deal worth $64 million ($8 million AAV). Guentzel did not accept it promptly, leading the Hurricanes to trade his negotiating rights to Tampa Bay on June 30, 2024, for a 2025 third-round pick. He then quickly signed the 7x$9M deal with the Lightning on July 1, 2024. Guentzel himself later reflected (in 2025 interviews) that staying in Carolina was his initial preference, but negotiations stalled and “didn’t work out,” with Tampa’s opportunity becoming a “no-brainer.” No reports from outlets like ESPN, NHL.com, or insiders (e.g., Elliotte Friedman, Pierre LeBrun, Frank Seravalli) indicate Carolina ever matched or offered the Lightning’s exact terms—total money, AAV, or length. The extra year was Carolina’s key advantage, but they reportedly stuck closer to $8M AAV and moved on when Guentzel explored options.
