Just read a news story about a man that got struck by lightning in the scrotum. So...at least we're not that guy, right?

Lightning strikes incredibly unlucky man in the scrotum

5/4/2012

A guy in Spain is probably hoping pretty fervently right about now that the old adage about lightning not striking twice in the same place is true. The 53-year-old man to whom we refer was walking down a suburban Madrid street when lightning struck his scrotum through his pants, traveled down his leg and exited his body through one of his feet. He fell unconscious, but survived the zap and was zipped off to a local hospital, where testing determined that, shockingly, his heart and brain were unaffected. His testicles, however, were badly burned. Hold your roasted nuts jokes, please.

Do you know anyone who's been struck by lightning?
