Thunderstorms have been wrecking havoc in Taiwan recently, causing floods, crippling transportation, and opening portals for the return of Loki. Lucky for us, the lightning-thrower dude is on our side.

This happened recently at Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport. There’s a CCTV-4 video via ifeng.com for those in China after the jump.
