There was some kind of radio tower near us. We didn't turn around to figure it out. We ran. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Chl0r0f0rm_Angel@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 day ago (1 child) Whew. Sounds loud as hell permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] SUDO@reddthat.com 19 points 1 day ago* (2 children) Ironically, I don't remember it being too loud.

That happened to me last week right outside my house. I've never heard anything quite as loud nor with such a large thump in my body. Felt a bit like my bell got rung for the rest of the day. permalink fedilink source parent [–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca -3 points 1 day ago Where did it strike then? the earth, somewhere ;-) permalink fedilink source parent
