It was an exceptionally hot summer day and I was tired and dirty from work.
I decided to get a cool bath. I was in the tub and saw the dark clouds rolling across the fields toward us and knew this was going to be a bad storm. Figured I had better get out of the tub. Then I felt it.
A little tingle through the tub drain cover plate as I saw a strike a mile or so away. So being the smart guy I am, I figured the voltage was discharged and I was safe so I stayed in the tub to watch the storm.
It turns out that the guy who said "lightining never strikes the same place twice" was a liar. A few minutes later, my wife saw the lightning strike a telephone pole about 1/4 mile down the road, and saw the flash come down the pole directly in front of our house.
I felt it bad. I jumped from the tub and screamed like a little girl. Took about 30 gallons of water onto the bathroom floor with me. I ran into the living room naked screaming that I had been struck by lightning.
After being struck, I tried all the standard super powers: flying, invisibility, x-ray vision...nothing.
