Well, I assume we were relatively safe. There is a high-voltage transmission line behind the point of view of the camera. It should have attracted the lightning and we think it did a few times.

The one you see on the video has hit the bottom of a limestone quarry behind the earthwork, it's about 10 meters deep.
