LIGHTNING SPLITTING (micro string black hole splitting) seems the micro example for the whole Universal creation system after the black hole spitting big bang.
According to Q-FFF Theory, each channel starts by the splitting of one micro String Knot Black Holes (or micro ball lightning black hole) forming multiple (most) temporary electron fluxtube channels with charge transport leaving only three channels behind, formed by Lightning recorded at 7000 FPS SEE: https://youtu.be/XWuZqw3LopE via youtube
Attention for each fork moment into two channels by splitting the string nucleus of the micro magnetic black hole into two smaller pieces each negative charged and repelling each other.
See also the cosmological comparison with splitting sunspots and forming Herbig Haro systems and new stars in the middle.
Below, the effect of the Q-FFF and Penrose trapped fermion repelling black hole horizon.
see for ball lightning black hole splitting: after Sprites and elves interference formation above thunderstorms, combined with ice formation into a micro comet sometimes also splitting by an unstable micro nucleus.
