What’s the most unbelievable thing that’s ever happened to you?

Indirectly struck by lightening, knocked to my knees, felt the electricity go up one leg, across my chest and down the other leg. I got up 10 seconds later unharmed. Both my arms and legs were shaking. The lighting hit the aluminum eaves trough and was conveyed via the water down the roof leader. I stepped in the puddle at the end of the downspout just as the lighting hit the eaves trough.

@OfMiceandMen Hello, fellow Canadian here. 🇨🇦 Just so you know, most people outside of Canada reading your comment aren't going to know what the heck an "eaves trough" is. 😂 For anyone reading who doesn't know: an "eaves trough" is a rain gutter. lol

With that said, I've had several very close calls with lightning in my day: on two completely separate occasions the car I was in was hit by lightning - once while rolling down the highway, the other time inside a stationary car, waiting for a torrential thunderstorm to pass. Another time a lightning bolt struck only 5 feet away from the window I was sitting next to (the lightning bolt struck a walkway between two buildings where there was only a 5-6 foot gap between the roofs). And lastly, about 15 years ago I got caught in a thunderstorm while waiting for a bus with nowhere to take shelter, the bus rolled up, and literally about 6-7 seconds later, the newspaper box I was standing next to got hit by lightning. If that bus hadn't have come when it did, I would have been dead. Sometimes I swear I'm like that guy from the movie The Great Outdoors where he got hit 66 times in the head or something. lol But seriously, I have been in some crazy weather situations in my day so far, and I simply DO NOT mess around with Mother Nature when things get ugly.

Glad to see you survived! I hope to never get stuck by lightning! 😬🤞

@Adventurer23 Thanks, I've heard it used both ways, but you are right most know it as a rain gutter.👍

@ChiTown33 That's exactly what I said! Needless to say, I stayed in the building after that.

Maybe the night I met and got my pic with eminem

Back when I was about 11 years old I was caught in the middle of a large, open fairground with no immediate place to take cover for miles around when a vicious thunderstorm ripped through and two tornadoes touched down at the same time within about a half a mile away. That got the ol' heart pumping.

The biggest surprise of my life is when my best friend of 18 years rejected me as a friend, I thought we loved each other like sisters.

The most extreme thing I have ever done was lock out of an escape hatch on a submarine at periscope depth about 60 miles off the coast in 1000 feet deep water while it was under way.

I can't think if anything. My life is just that boring.
