There’s a cottage industry that creates fake lightning strike videos. They’re usually grainy to cover up the fakery.
Lightning strikes are relatively easy to put into a video. Getting the reflections right is harder though.
I’m not an expert, but the reflections don’t look quite right to me. More light in the reflection than there should be in places where we don’t see a reflection of the people before the lightning strike.
That’s true, though lighting strikes kinda-sorta create their own path of least resistance. They’re complicated, and I still consider it slightly unlucky given the proximity of the building.

I could be wrong but… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H6yQOs93Cgg
I had a feeling it was fake bc the guy in the background didn’t react at all. But who knows, I could be wrong too. Just gave me the same feeling.
I think you are right to be skeptical, especially considering their proximity to a seemingly tall building, but no, it’s real.

Path of lowest resistance does not need to be the shortest path

Its definitely unlucky and unlikely!
Neat!
Bro, even just the thumbnail… you already see that fist clenched, face tort and hear the deep whisper incoming…
