Well they've been published in an important news website here in Argentina. They're usually reliable.

Plus, what makes those photos so amazing is the contrast in color between the light coming out of the ashes due to the intense heat inside, and the color of the lightnings, which during this time of the year lightning storms are very common in those parts. Would have been quite a sight to have been there and seen this in person

A C5N camera registered the moment at which an originating truck of Tucumán overturned its load of fruits on freeway 9 of South Julio Miraculously nobody was wounded A truck overturned and spilled a heavy load of lemons from a height superior to the 15 meters on the access of Buenosairean freeway 9 of South Julio, in the direction of province, without victims registered themselves.

Yeah, saw that one too. That dude underneath is one lucky SOB.

[peewee's lovechild]

Those are some kick ass pictures.

Fuck, those look amazing.

[peewee's lovechild]

Pics 2-5 look like something from The Matrix.

That's some impressive stuff.

[tlongII]

Reminds me of St Helens.

Any quotes from Hagee?

Here's a video that shows the lightning within the cloud of ash

[Avitus1]

Cool pics.

[MannyIsGod]

I doubt those pics are fake. All lightning is is basicaly static electricity release and you'd get a ton of that the way the air and ash clouds move and rise because of the enormous heat released. In fact I'm fairly certain lightning is common in eruptions of that size. The mechanics of that ash cloud really aren't any different than the mechanics of a thunderstorm.

Those pics are incredible.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Lightning's actually a pretty common thing during volcanic eruptions.
