    They can be quite atmospheric, which is cool.

    Actually, a Danish soccer player was struck by lightning in the middle of a match, and is now in danger of dying. Imagine, running around playing soccer in front of hundreds of fans, and then suddenly getting struck by such force of nature!

    I heard about that, Breine. They've had to put him into an induced coma. Apparently half a dozen other players were knocked to the ground as well, but that player has hit in the head?!! Ow.

    I like them. I saw a really good one in Poland a couple of years ago. Really good forked lightning all across the sky.

    I wonder who God was supporting.

    Anyway I love lightning, I think it is a fantastic display of nature and whenever this is any I'll sit and watch it while listening to music.

    They're not very common here which is a bit sad since I love the crap out of them, but I suppose that also adds to the fun when we do get one. We had one just the other day, unfortunately it was still daylight out so it wasn't as effectful as otherwise, but the rain was pretty heavy so sitting inside listening to it was still very cosy.
