He was hit in the head by lightning and is still talking about it

Think fast: Would you be able to duck quick enough to avoid a lightning bolt aimed at your head?
Courtesy andrewomerknappWhat would you say after getting struck in the head by a bolt of lightning. "Ouch" just doesn't seem expressive enough. Read this to hear what a man in Mora, Minn., has to say after getting hit in the head by lightning. And check out the picture of what it did to his ball cap. DISCLAIMER: Science Buzz does not encourage anyone to intentionally try to get struck in the head by lightning. Don't try this at home or anywhere else.

I knew a guy who got attacked by a grizzly bear and lived to tell about it... and that's all he ever did.
"Blah blah blah. Hey, girls, want to hear about how I was eaten by a bear? Want to see my tooth mark scars? Blah blah I'm super cool blah. Here's my digits."
Whatever. I scraped my hip at the waterslides in junior high, but you don't hear me bragging about it all the time. Same goes for the lightning guy—you can tell your mom about it, and maybe bring it up once at, say, a lightning-themed party, but after that just keep it to yourself, okay?
that so mest up i dont belive you ur ate by a bear
I don't even believe I wr ate by bear.
hey wats up.....shaina says hi...o and she says ur face is gnarley man.......wat happened thats so epic dude.....hahaha......ttyl
Thanks! My face is gnarley! I think I got in a fight with myself—I seem to remember that it happened in the bathtub. Anyway, there was all this blood that I didn't want to go to waste, so I documented the whole thing.
Epic indeed.
Who won?
I did. Really, the only loser was the bathtub.
Wow! This story is really cool. The fact that some one can live through that (and the many other things he'd been through) really shows God's power, don't ya think? Anything through him is possible, and this proves it!
Too bad the guy had to get shot in the head with lightning to prove it.
ouch
I cant believe you survived. You are really brave.great work!
This truly is a bizarre yet fascinating incident. Its a shame that people posting comments on this blog have to be so unintelligent and immature. Grow up America!
Hey that is rude! Some people actually have a sense of humor!!!!!!
