Having a tough time believing the video above was enough to illuminate the entire skyline like in the other videos. 

Nah, in that shot you can't really see the clouds above that the light is bouncing off of to create that bright blue sky. Even a small transformer explosion/arc on a pole will put on a very impressive light show. It just usually doesn't last very long. That arcing in the videos is much bigger than that. I wouldn't wanna be anywhere near that shit.

This. It looks like that transformer was at a substation and those handle about Godzilla times the power one on your neighborhood pole does. Few things more impressive than a sustained high voltage arc.
