siftbotsays...Moving this video to grinter's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
Zawashsays...Darn, nature - you scary!
"Man Films Being Struck By Lightning" is a better title, though.

How then? Even looking out the window you are definatly not the point of least resistance nor the tallest pole..
jimnmssays...It's not some law of nature that lightning only strikes the tallest spot or goes for the path of least resistance. I think there's a video that has an ultra slow motion capture showing how lightning works. Before the actual bolt strikes, you can see these little "finger" looking things coming down. Once they touch something that gives it a path to the ground, the lightning is discharged. Basically it strikes what it finds first, which generally is something tall, but if it happens to find something else first, like you, it's going to strike that instead.
