Shocking news, 17 year old Jason Bunch was listening to his iPod while he was mowing the lawn, a bolt of lightning struck him on his iPod. Luckily he’s still alive but his face and his ear were burned and he lost some hearing. The wounds run along the line of his iPod, from his ears down his right side to his hip, where he was carrying the device. There’s a hole at the back of the iPod, and the earbuds were dissolved into green threads. Please do not listen to iPod when there’s lightning; this also applies to other electronic devices that may attract lightning.
