If there a thunderstorm happening outside and you don’t have to be out and about, it’s probably best you stay indoors — because while the possibility is low, there is still a small chance you can get fried up by a lighting bolt. And that’s what almost happened to the kid in the video below.

The video below shows an Argentine mom filming her 12-year-old son playing in the rain while holding an umbrella only for shit to hit the fan once a lighting bolt strikes down, almost hitting the kid dead on.

Take a look at the scary footage below.

This Kid Came Way Too Close To Being Obliterated By Lightning

The boy’s mom, Carolina Kotur, had this to say:

“It was morning, I was with my daughter in the room calming her, because she is scared of lightning. Then the lady who works in my house told me that my son was walking in the rain and I started filming because I was making a joke, and right next to him the lightning struck. Thank God nothing happened to him.”

Well, maybe if it struck him he would have gotten powers? No? Hey, you never know.
