Re: Hit by Lightning

No wonder they are rare:

Odds of being struck in your lifetime (Est. 80 years) = 1/13,000

Odds of being struck in a given year (estimated total deaths + injuries) = 1/1,042,000


Not his luckiest day...

Thanks for the post

Re: Hit by Lightning

These are from Brazil. Sequence was taken by a photographer at the beach in Guarujá during a storm. First picture shows woman in bikini yelling at her husband and son to get out of water due to storm. Second picture is her getting hit by lightning bolt behind the truck. Third picture is her being pulled up the beach by rescuers. Happened in 2014.

I went to school with a dude who was, by all accounts, struck twice by lightening.
