Not I, but looks like the dude who filmed it may have found some cash...selling T-shirts, several song re-mixes on itunes and guest spots on Jimmy Kimmel. He kinda looks like a cross between Grisley Adams and a Leprechaun.

I think someone already beat you to it buddy.



Frequently, a dim secondary rainbow is seen outside the primary bow. Secondary rainbows are caused by a double reflection of sunlight inside the raindrops, and appear at an angle of 50–53°. As a result of the second reflection, the colours of a secondary rainbow are inverted compared to the primary bow, with blue on the outside and red on the inside. The secondary rainbow is fainter than the primary because more light escapes from two reflections compared to one and because the rainbow itself is spread over a greater area of the sky. The dark area of unlit sky lying between the primary and secondary bows is called Alexander's band, after Alexander of Aphrodisias who first described it.

A third, or tertiary, rainbow can be seen on rare occasions, and a few observers have reported seeing quadruple rainbows in which a dim outermost arc had a rippling and pulsating appearance. These rainbows would appear on the same side of the sky as the Sun, making them hard to spot. One type of tertiary rainbow carries with it the appearance of a secondary rainbow immediately outside the primary bow. The closely spaced outer bow has been observed to form dynamically at the same time that the outermost (tertiary) rainbow disappears. During this change, the two remaining rainbows have been observed to merge into a band of white light with a blue inner and red outer band. This particular form of doubled rainbow is not like the classic double rainbow due to both spacing of the two bows and that the two bows share identical normal colour positioning before merging. With both bows, the inner colour is blue and the outer colour is red.

Interesting bit about double rainbows having inverted colors from the first. This would be (at least this is how I understood it) because the secondary rainbow is a reflection of the original rainbow, which is a reflection of the sunlight. Interesting phenomenon.

I would love to see a triple rainbow.

believe this is from @2007

So simple, yet so beautiful.
I've seen rainbows before, but I've never seen a double rainbow.
