Description
"A high-voltage trip into the most electrically charged weather in the world -- culminating in a dazzling lightning show set to music. ... The program also visits with some of lightning's tragic victims who thought they were out of harm's way. Lightning's fleeting rivers of electricity strike Earth 6,000 times a minute; jolt every commercial airplane one or two times a year; wipe out power to entire cities, hit 1,000 people annually; and account on average for more deaths than hurricanes and tornadoes put together." -- Container.
