    The headlines said she was struck by lightening and the next day won the lottery... so misleading... $20! :whoopdedoo:

    Still, that's some crazy luck. A while back I watched a show about this teen girl who was struck by lightening and set back to a childlike mind state...even had to relearn how to talk and tie her shoes...everything.

    Makes you wonder what that doctor could have gotten out of that girl.

    FFS I thought it was going to be that she won millions.

    So basically it's just a story of someone surviving a lightning strike.
