The morons that filmed this seem to be quite happy about this tree.
"Better than the 4th of July". "There's like 440,000 volts up there." There's laughter throughout the video.
They apparently didn't call 911 to report the incident, from the statement that "the Fire Department will hear that" (when the arc finally trips the circuit, before the reclosers kick in ) close to the end of the film.
I don't think that their mirth is warranted.
