At the end when he's all fine and ok, yeah it was pretty hilarious. But my heart was still pounding as these horrible scenarios were going through my head.

BTW fuck off.

Wow dude, your dad's a fucking idiot. :olo:

Hey, how about the next thunderstorm you get him to stand on the roof in a brass tub attached to a lightning rod, filled with saltwater in steel underwear with a copper ring in his nose, waving a golf club around? :olo:

I think it finally stopped now. If Puff is around, was it this bad in T.O.? I think Mississauga got the worst of it.
T.O got shit, but i did see the lightning show off in your direction

No burns?
good point. i don't think it hit him. there's always a hit and exit point.

I call bullshit or just stupid.

The lightening would choose the path with the least resistance to the earth, which would be the steel ladder. It wouldnt bother going through gramps with a huge resistance if it could go down steel/aluminium... not too surprising that he only got shocked a little bit.

I think it was actually a discharge from a government weather control machine.

To some of the disbelievers, despite the idiocy of the doofus clan, surviving a lightning stike unscathed is very plausible, if the journal I peeped a few months back can be considered credible source:

P.S. glad to hear you and yours escaped the inevitable for the time being, dick head.

mazda said it hit the lightning rod, not the man he's gotten into the habit of calling dad.

Got a severe thunderstorm watch right now and it's already rumbling in the distance :icon14:

If it gets really crazy, I'll make sure to film it. Last night was too dark.
