Girl Struck by Lightning Twice While in Shower(Duh)!

Swedish girl zapped by lightning twice

A 12-year-old girl in Gothenburg was struck by lightning twice while taking a shower during a thunderstorm on Wednesday evening.


After dinner 12-year-old Alice went downstairs in the basement to take a shower when her parents heard her scream.
