Storm chaser hit by lightning — somehow captures whole event on video

It doesn’t matter what happens, keep the cameras rolling — even if you’re struck by lightning. 

Storm chaser Scott Sheppard captured this first-person video while filming out of his car window in Fairburn, South Dakota. Sheppard is just admiring the upcoming opening of the heavens when BOOM! his arm gets smacked with a nice little bolt of God bowling.

Wait, thunder meant God was bowling. What did lighting mean? Probably that he’s angry people chase storms for a living.

Sheppard survived the hit.
