Russian Power Station Goes Haywire


You’re driving south of St Petersburg, listening to some John Lennon. The traffic is a little heavy. God, this song is so great — and now, let us pause for an enormous electrical explosion that dominates the entire horizon.

The video comes along with this article from Fontanka.ru, so poorly Google-translated that I’m only able to ascertain that the fire department showed up at some point. I’m amazed the car’s passengers remained so calm — perhaps gigantic apocalyptic lightning conflagrations are just part of the ol’ St Petersburg commute. [Fontanka.ru via Reddit]
