It's also not clear who made the video or just how real it is. 
The thieves had reportedly robbed a church in the city of St Petersburg.
To date the video has been watched more than 90,000 times. So even though it may not be real, it certainly has legs.
Many viewers though have deemed it an example of 'divine intervention'.

According to experts, the chances of getting killed by lightning are around 300,000 to one.
