Lightning bolt strikes just metres away from man posing for video in northern China

This is the scary moment a lightning bolt struck the ground just several metres behind a local taking a video in northern China.

Footage shows the lightning touching down in a park in Langfang City, Hebei province, on June 17, jolting the man who was there reportedly to film the thunderstorm. As the electricity struck dangerously close to them, they decided to pack up for the day.
