Video: This Coconut Tree Died ,dried Up And Then Caught Fire All By Itself(photos)

One of the coconut trees at my backyard was struck by lightning about one and a half months ago ,so it died and the leaves began to dry up .

Now the dry tree caught fire all by itself . I’m wondering if it was struck again by lightning or an unknown person probably set it on fire .

On Wednesday 27/04/2016 at 5:30pm, the weather suddenly changed from being very sunny to being cloudy and dark and it was quite evident it was going to rain very heavily. My dad was sitting outside receiving fresh air when a great lightening accompanied with the loudest thunderstorm I've heard all my life struck. It was so severe that my dad nearly felt the impact of it because it happened right before him. He came inside the house and called our names to be sure we were safe.

The next thing we heard were the voices of people calling to alert us of fire which had caught a coconut tree close to our fence at the backyard. At that time, the rain had already begun pouring without mercy and the fire wasn't giving any sign it was going to stop. Some part of the tree started falling into the compound with fire stuck to it. We tried to quench each of them as they fell and by God's grace, the fire stopped after the rain fell for just 20minutes but the lightening killed the coconut tree instantly.

I only saw things like this in Nollywood movies and never thought I would see it in reality. Pls, let's make sure we take safety precautions during rainy periods by putting off our appliances and if possible switching everything off from the central point.

The Shocking Village Where Everyone Has Only One Kidney

The bizarre story of Nepal’s “Kidney Village” Hokse is a small village located in the east of Kathmandu-Nepal, filled with mud-brick homes and known for its residents commuting to the capital for work since staying in their home village means making less than $2 a day working on small farms. But what appears to be a normal small town, has a dark secret hiding within. Out of the 75 households in a single ward of homes, at least one member has sold a kidney. T he story began when smooth-talking organ traffickers regularly visited Hokse and other small villages for over a decade, in an attempt to convince the poor and uneducated residents to have operations in southern India. One of their regular tricks was to play on their naivety and tell them that their kidney would grow back! Some victims were kidnapped and forced to give up an organ, and some were lied to about needing an operation and the organ was harvested without their knowledge. Other villagers were more aware of the phy...

Why Adolf Hitler offer Rommel the chance to take his own life.

Rommel was a highly decorated officer in World War I and was awarded the Pour le Mérite for his actions on the Italian Front. In 1937, he published his classic book on military tactics, Infantry Attacks , drawing on his experiences in that war. In World War II, he commanded the 7tph Panzer Division during the 1940 invasion of France. His leadership of German and Italian forces in the North African campaign established his reputation as one of the ablest tank commanders of the war, and earned him the nickname der Wüstenfuchs , "the Desert Fox". Among his British adversaries he had a reputation for chivalry, and his phrase "war without hate" has been uncritically used to describe the North African campaign. A number of historians have since rejected the phrase as myth and uncovered numerous examples of war crimes and abuses towards both enemy soldiers and native populations in Africa during the conflict. Other historians not...
