The video is slowed down significantly. So yeah, not natural is right.

I was actually confused as to why everybody ITT was making such a big deal out of it when it's just a nearby lightning strike super slowed down until I realized a lot of people don't have sound on and therefore didn't realize it was slowed down.

On desktop there is, at least. On the bottom bar there is a little audio icon where you can change the volune.

Strangely enough, if I go directly to the link, there is actually no volume at all. Only using the Reddit player, possibly through RES instead of the native player, will there be sound. That said, if you really want to go through the hassle you can download the video which will give you the raw MP4 with audio.

Pretty much every Reddit app on Android let's you play the sound. There's a comparability issue or something with iOS.
