If there’s anything that you can learn from this news story, is never put your mouth near the water tap when there’s lightning outside. If you still need to brush your teeth, then don’t wear rubber shoes. Go with naked feet.
A lightning which struck a building, went through the pipes and passed through the body of a woman, who was about to rinse the toothpaste off from her mouth. Since she was wearing rubber shoes, the sparks went out of her anus, causing severe burns.
It was incredibly painful, I felt it pass through my torso and then I don’t remember much at all.” Doctors at the city hospital where she was treated for burns to the mouth and rear said: “The accident is bizarre but not impossible.
That leaves me wondering, were all the food in her tummy got overcooked after that?

(if a novelist slipped this in to a piece of fiction, would anyone believe it?)
