And sometimes even four times. Carl Mize of Oklahoma was struck by lightning during an August 5th storm, however, being the fourth time he’s been struck, the incident was nothing new to him.

He was working with a crew on the University of Oklahoma campus, when they saw storms approaching. A co-worker familiar with his history retreated, saying “I’m getting away from you.” The bolt struck soon after that.

Amazingly, Carl’s fourth strike is nothing compared to Roy Sullivan who suffered an astonishing seven strikes in his life. Unfortunately, not everyone is as lucky.
