The rule of thumb for avoiding getting directly struck is to make sure you are below a line drawn 45 degrees down from the tallest nearby object. However, if you can actually hear thunder then I think that's a good time to play it safe.

People who survive lightning strikes don't get special powers, they usually get personality changes instead. Probably has to do with the brain getting rewired or something.

I take it this was the primitive ECT? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electroconvulsive_therapy)

Tie the guy up to the tallest thing and wait for a storm.
seriously next disrespectful comment in this blog is ip ban. Be happy or get the hell out. // SC2 is like playing with neutral-colored Play-Doh while BW is like colorful Legos.

i feel this shock go down the top of my head and like out my feet and fingers, it wasan't that hard because the lightning didn't hit me, but it was literally 30 feet away. scared the fuck out of me

That's awesome. Did it feel like a static shock (like when you touch a car door) except at an enormous magnitude and feeling it with your entire body instead of just your finger?

my sig is from the sublime song 54-46 that's my number. and the shock was like more powerful than car door. differen't though, more magnitude and started at the top of my head instead of like your finger.
