Guemes Island, Wash. resident Jessica Lynch was leaning out of a second story window last week, trying to film lightning over the ocean, when a lighting bolt struck just feet away from her house - and gave her a shock. She told KING 5: "And right when it hit I felt something travel through my left thumb, through my arm, through my armpit, across my back and went out my other arm and that's when you hear me scream ... and you can see my camera shaking really bad at the end." Yikes. Check out the video on KING5.com, or her Flickr page.
