A plane with 140 passengers on board was struck by lightning while landing in the midst of a large storm in Central America.
A camera located in the cockpit of a Boeing 737 flying above Panama captured the terrifying moment the bolt struck the nose of the aircraft, which was descending to land,
The pilots were stunned by the sudden lightning strike only yards outside their window in almost complete darkness.
As per local reports, fortunately, no damage was done to the plane’s fuselage nor any passengers or crew were harmed.

“Lightning strikes happen quite often but it’s special to capture one on video. I was just recording the flight during the storm,” the person who filmed said.
A person associated with the flight shared the video, however, wanted to remain anonymous.
It was reported that the video was taken last week on board a Boeing 737 MAX aircraft.
Tocumen International Airport is the busiest airport in Panama and services flights from over 20 airlines including Air China, Air France, American Airlines, Copa Airlines, Delta, United and Lufthansa.
