Lightning Passes Through Woman's Butt
Thursday, October 12, 2006
A WOMAN has suffered severe burning to her anus after being struck by lightning which hit her in the mouth and passed right through her body. Natasha Timarovic, 27, was cleaning her teeth at home when lightning struck the building. She said: “I had just put my mouth under the tap to rinse away the toothpaste when the lightning must have struck the building. I don’t remember much after that, but I was later told that the lightning had travelled down the water pipe and struck me on the mouth, passing through my body. 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.
Talk about unlucky. I am now contemplating writing to toothpaste manufacturers world wide demanding that tey include a warning on their toothpaste saying “in case of thunderstorms, floss only” as it seems to be the safest option!
