The most scariest moment in my life was when I was walking home from high school in a thunderstorm at the age of 17. I was 6 inches away from being struck by lightning. I was bragging about it for the next three weeks, because I've survived an electrical storm, being that close to The Kiss of Death.
That's really cool. I went through something similar myself when I was a kid. I was in a house during a thunderstorm, and the transformer out front was struck, and burst into a torrent of white sparks. Then the house was struck, and it caught fire. We didn't notice until it was half burnt down. When we went outside after, I was just laughing
