Everyone run the next time she says, "Gotta bolt."
:D

[AllyOops!]

I once sh*t lightning after eating an Indian meal of tandoori chicken, but that's a whole different story..

ICK. :( :p

That story actually scared the daylights out of me. Lightning once struck our neighbor's home across the street years ago when I was living at home. I was in college at the time and studying, and suddenly I heard a deafening crash. The light that flashed through my closed window blinds was actually, well blinding.

When I ran outside, the street was SMOKING. The neighbor's palm tree was on fire. And everybody on the block's computers & TV's were SHOT. Our bigscreen was operable, but now with a lovely tinted green screen. We all lost power, and maybe our minds a little that night. :( THANK GOD, however, that the most important thing of all occured- nobody was struck.

Yeah, it can be pretty amazing. I once had lightning strike ground about 30 feet away from me and a group of friends. It is pretty amazing that close.

[Gemini Cricket]

Right before Hurricane Iwa hit, there was a lot of thunder and lightning. A bolt hit the middle of our school's playground area. I was about 50 feet away. It's amazing how fast and bright it is. After it happened, everything around us felt static-y. Weird. Since it was raining, no one was where it hit... thankfully.

[Cadaverous Pallor]

I find this story more frightening than funny. :eek:

[CoasterMatt]

I think the guy who ate 247 jalapenos in 8 minutes might challenge her to "Most Inflamed Rectum Ever" :eek:

AlllRIGHTYthen.....

[Jughead P. Jones]

I am absolutely shocked.

[tracilicious]

This thread makes me want to stand really close to lightning without getting hit. Poor woman. Not only does she get hit by lightning, but she also becomes know as the woman with the electric ass.

[Not Afraid]

I'd sh!t too if I was struck my lightning.

[€uroMeinke]

Supposedly, one of the characteristics of being an Aquarious like me is being prone to being struck by lightening. I must remember to wear my rubber soles.

[Prudence]

Forget the dangers of lightening - who wants the world knowing that much about the condition of their ass?

[€uroMeinke]

Well, if they have to know anything, that's a damn good story to tell.

[RStar]

She was wearing rubber bathroom shoes at the time and so instead of earthing through her feet it appears the electricity shot out of her backside," I'm not sure I want anything "earthing" out my backside at all! Much less 2.1 Gigawatts!:eek:

I do hope she is recovering well. She is lucky to be alive!

A couple months ago ligting struck some trees across the street from me. By the time I got my camera, they were all gone except this one palm:

It scared the residents enough that two days later every tree on their lot was gone!

These are the same people who want to arm teachers because of a few shootings?

[CoasterMatt]

We need to teach the kids to be better shots...

[RStar]

Exactly. Have they never heard that lightening never strikes twice in the same place?

Not to mention that the idea of placing dozens of guns in an environment where shootings are on the rise is foolish.....

[Kevy Baby]

I am absolutely shocked.I agree... 247 jalapenos in 8 minutes!

Wow
