Chasing Bolts - the hunt to capture the perfect bolt of lightning ⚡🌩 | ABC Australia

Ойын-сауық

Moisture, lift and an unstable atmosphere. When these three ingredients come together, that's where you'll find storms, and where there are storms, there are storm chasers - people who travel thousands of kilometres to chase wild and dangerous weather. They are on the hunt to capture the perfect bolt of lightning flashing across the skies. They are chasing bolts.

    What a fantastic story. That is one of my greatest passions. Excellent pictures and scenery. My heart goes out to the lady who's daughter is stricken with brain chemistry disorder, I myself have daughter with brain chemical deficiency and its extremely difficult to manage, but manage some how. She's correct that it makes you a better person in many ways. Lots of love from the north eastern u.s.

    Omg this has me selling up! I’m so terrified of lightening and a storm is expected tonight but my phobia is so strong I am already terrified! But watching this has really shown me how my fears are preventing me from living. And I want to see a storm now! Amazing stories from all these bolt chasers! So nice seeing the child at the end get excited too and what amazing strength the mum has, all so fearless, love it ❤

    What a superb documentary! I also love the accompanying music. Each one of these storm chasers are remarkable human beings who follow their dreams to get to see those bolts up close and personally. I love it when people do what they love to do, because I realize how happy they are! That's why Jim Cantore from The Weather Channel does what he does, and his father inspired him to do what he loves doing. I wish I'd had that type of support growing up, but I do now. I truly believe I wouldn't be here today if I wasn't doing what I love to do so much, and that's singing. Thank God for Pat Metheny, who himself may not sing, but what a musician and amazing human being!

    Great visuals, but why all those "+" signs over those magnificent skyscapes? If it's Nature that's the focus, why apply some human graphic over the top? Only detracts from what is meant to be seen.

    I am a Nature Photographer. In many ways. Lightning as well. Been doing it for over 20 years. & I love it! I truthfully, Love Storm's then Clear Days. I believe in a lot of Clear days, are quite boring. Yet with Storm's. There is no way to Explain. Its beyond amazing! I deeply love it! I have gotten thousands of pics! Just of Lightning 🌩 .. Yet can't wait to get more. I have gotten My favorite Volcano hit, 7 times. One bolt. & even more. Got it on video too. I have gotten so many pics & Videos. & I deeply love Nature. & I will keep doing it too

    Not the best voice over at the beginning, sounds like my junior school teacher! Jordan is lucky he has a wife that understands him and he gives her pins of where he is. I can understand how these guys feel Lightning is rare in my part of the UK, but when it happens in summer, its a free show that you have to sit down with a tinnie and watch.

    I have to agree about the voice over, unfortunately, which spoils an otherwise sensational presentation. Buckets of admiration for the Bolt Chasers, especially Kylie Gee.
