Thou shalt not use high-octane

A man was filling up at a gas station in Barker, NY, when lightning struck the parking lot. He survived with only minor injuries.

William Hall, 44, was taped on a surveillance camera as the lightning bolt hit. He was knocked clear of his car and lay unconscious for several minutes. But he reported only soreness and a few blisters when he awoke.

The video shows the bright flash of the lightning. Amazing.
