It's an earlier photo being presented again now with a catchy title.

It's a photoshop job.

Anyway you look at it, it's irrelevant.

Regardless, everybody knows that the gods only throw down Coca-Cola bottles.

No instances of it found before today. Doesn't look like photoshop, though you can never tell.

I know how bright lightning is from photographing lightning, and this is not an original photo of lightning. Those street lights would not be that bright and the window lights would not saturate the frame.
