doesn't everyone know by now that you're not supposed to hide under a tree during a lightning storm??? I mean come on, were they on a golf course too?!?
seriously though, my father and law was struck by lighting a few years ago. It went through his arm and hand and he had to have physical therapy. He lives in a really wooded area of Michigan and was just out in the orchard and it hit him. He was really lucky that he wasn't really hurt. His hand still tingles sometimes now I guess
