Can't believe they survived

Excellent example of exemplary aviation reporting today.
Plane passes within 2m-20km (impossible to tell) of a lightning strike.

"That was scary" says the storm chaser, who are generally well known to be aviation experts as well. (Sorry Daniel, but nice photo/vid btw)
It's perhaps surprising that the subtitle toward the end says "And it arrived safe and sound" as opposed to "Unbelievably, it didn't explode mid-air".

I'm embarrassed that I clicked on the link.
