Airliner near T-storms

That's cool. I think the highest I've seen thick layers of clouds like that was at 36,000 feet.
 
I don't know that looked kinda low to me. I've actually had to look up at a T-storm at 50 miles away. They can be over 50,000 ft sometimes.
 
I've seen, no joke, tops to over 70,000 feet on radar before. I think there was a thread about that sometime last year.
 
I'm confused. What exactly are we looking at? I see a plane flying through the tops of an overcast layer. Where's the thunderstorm they were talking about?

I don't see them either, other than in the distance at the end when they break out.
 
Yeah I don't see anything....looks like a nice calm overcast layer. Possibly a minor build up or two in the last 5 seconds of the video, but nothing convective looking otherwise.
