It's almost like there was some kind of crazy otherworldly thing going on, letting lightning zap the same spot twice.
And wait, it gets even crazier - he actually lived to tell the whole wild story.
From Oddity Central:
Liu Nan was outside his home in Zunyi, China’s Guizhou Province during a thunderstorm last month, when he saw a white light before losing consciousness and falling to the ground. He barely had time to register what had happened when he saw the bright light again and once again got knocked out.
When he miraculously woke up the second time, Liu saw his wife and children overwhelmed by fear as he lay on the ground. He knew he had been struck by lightning, and he immediately called for an ambulance. The middle-aged man was taken to a local hospital where doctors confirmed that he had been struck by lightning not once but twice. He exhibited third-degree burns on his feet, waist and buttocks.
“I was knocked out immediately at the time, and it took a few moments for me to wake up,” Liu said. “Then the light came again, and the lightning struck down as I was lying on the ground. Although I was aware of being electrocuted, I didn’t know that the entire ground was also electrified.”
Lightning strikes usually cause severe damage to the victim’s skin, and Liu Nan’s case was no different. It left him with third-degree burns that he is still struggling with. About a month after his miraculous survival, the Chinese man’s burn wounds still have not healed Luckily, his condition is now stable and can consider himself lucky to be alive.
Lucky doesn't even begin to cover just how fortunate this man is to still be alive.
Honestly, enduring burns after going through something like that is nothing short of a miracle.
