Lightning Strikes Through Window — on Video

lightning strike on camera, originally uploaded by SLOWLORIS.

In case you haven’t seen this already…Washington artist Jessica Lynch was filming a rainstorm from her second-floor window last week, when she was struck by lightning. Incredibly, not only was she uninjured, but the camera got the whole thing on video.

Lynch sells T-shirts online at Slow Shirts, and has started offering lightning-bolt temporary tattoos with orders. Wired has an interview.

There is no indication that she gained super-speed from the experience.

  1. “There is no indication that she gained super-speed from the experience.”

    Of course not. There weren’t any electrified chemicals involved. ;)

  3. That’s a remarkable video. It’s amazing that she was alright…

    No indication of super speed eh? My guess is she probably doesn’t want to spoil her secret identity.
