Seven people were rescued on Saturday by the Coast Guard after their boat was left without power following a lightning strike that left them stranded 100 miles off of Clearwater, Florida.
Boat owner Glenn Rumer was with local fishing charter captain Joshua Guy, his partner Megan Chaple, who is six months pregnant, and local businesswoman Tonya Albritton, as well as three others when the strike happened.
The group was taking part in a fishing tournament in the Gulf of Mexico.
A video shot on board the boat shows Rumer and a passenger smiling at the camera moments before the lightning struck.
As the bolt hits the vessel, screams are heard while sparks can be seen flying behind Rumer and the other boater.
One person can be heard saying: 'Oh my God!'
A Coast Guard video goes on to show elements of the rescue showing one person being airlifted in a basket on to a Coast Guard Air Station Clearwater MH-60 helicopter.
The video then shows that person and others being hoisted on board the rescue helicopter.
