Michael Jackson vs The Lightning Storm

Six years after his untimely death, Michael Jackson made an after life encore of sorts over Central Virginia.


The combination of clouds and light created an image that appeared, to some, to look like the King of Pop himself. The image was captured over Goochland County, Virginia (that poor, poor, unfortunately named county...just saying) during a June 23rd lightning storm. Jackson died June 25, 2009.

Photographer John Plashal said he was unaware of the Jackson imagery when he first submitted the photos to his local TV station's Facebook page following the storm. He said he was a fan of Michael Jackson and said he particularly recalled how the music video for Thriller changed MTV. He also said Jackson's death six years ago was one of those "I know where I was" moments.

What do you think? Did the King of Pop make an after life encore? Comment with your thoughts below!
