Thankfully not, but I did witness a person getting struck by lightning about 50 feet away from me, it was pretty surreal. Unfortunately, they didn't survive.

Dad witnessed a freak lightning death too.

When he 1st went to work for Citgo he was designing gas stations on mainly odd shaped lots leftover from major development (this was mid to late 60’s).

He was at a site outside of a brand new mall in central Florida and it was a bright sunny day. Said the lightning came from a solitary cloud near the horizon and struck 1 man as he loaded his shopping into the trunk of his car. Just a bright flash followed by a single clap of thunder and a dead body lying in the parking lot.

Dad always checked the sky when parking in wide open spaces for the rest of his life.
