He posted a photo on social networks with the caption, "If it didn't hit me today, it will never, trust me ... this was so close it wouldn't be any good if it was closer."

As he told us, he has been a "lightning chaser" for years. He revealed to us that he had an incredible feeling when lightning struck near him.

"I have a very interesting section of lightning striking as close as 50 meters from me. That feeling can't be described, it's an adrenaline injection for me. Whenever a storm starts there I am with the equipment and I go into action," Stefan Stanojlovic told Telegraf.rs.

In the incredible photos taken by our interlocutor, you can see how lightning bolts "rip" the sky and "paint" it in different colors.

In some photos, the sky is orange, while in others it is purple.

The natural phenomenon really leaves people breathless. Especially "lightning chasers" like this young man.
