That's Roy Sullivan, human lightning rod.
I know one guy who was hit while claim staking up at 12,000 feet on a mountain ridge. Knocked him out, he's okay, didn't throw him off the ridge, but he talks about the strange dreams he had that night.
While working on Pikes Peak, I often had bolts hit very close to me, close enough to smell the ozone. Sometimes, they make a little smoke ring where they hit the ground. Once, while on the summit during a hailstorm, I was engulfed by St Elmo's fire, a very strange feeling.
