This footage shows the moment an aircraft on approach to London’s Heathrow airport was struck by lightning.
The video, uploaded to the @FlightAlerts777 twitter, shows the aircraft flying over London and being hit by the lightning bolt.
The Icelandair plane was arriving from Reykjavik yesterday afternoon.
Passenger Catherine Mayer told the Evening Standard that the strike was “sudden and loud and very bright and unmistakable for what it was”.
She added: “I think all the passengers were too shocked to react but when we landed everybody was talking about it.
