LUCKY STRIKE

William Hall stopped at an upstate New York store to get gas ... and instead got struck by lightning.

“The light itself was bright white surrounded by orange, and then the rush. It was like heat,” the 44-year-old Hall told Today’s reporter in an exclusive interview in New York.

Mr Hall needs help from others to pick up the story from the moment the lightning hit, because that’s the last thing he remembers before losing consciousness. In the video, he is seen collapsing by his white pick-up truck, bumping his head on the vehicle before falling on the wet pavement.

Mr Hall and his girlfriend, Kymberly Fenn, said it had been raining a little earlier, and they had seen a few bolts of lightning while they were driving to get gas. Mr Hall had pumped $8 worth of gas when a security camera captured the orange and white fireball erupting from the pavement a few dozen feet from the roof over the pumps.

After the strike, Miss Fenn looked behind the truck and didn’t see her boyfriend. The video tape shows her getting out of the truck and bending over him. She and Mr Hall estimate that he was unconscious for four or five minutes. When he came to, Mr Hall saw Miss Fenn and store employees hovering over him. It soon became apparent that an ambulance was needed. “I wanted to get up, but my body wouldn’t allow me to,” Mr Hall said. “I couldn’t move. My heart was beating very fast. It was just ... very scary.”

The current apparently traveled through the rain slick on the pavement to Hall. It probably wouldn’t have happened if the surface hadn’t been wet. The chances of anyone being struck by lightning in his or her lifetime are about 5,000 to 1.

Mr Hall believes that his life was saved because he was holding the pump, which was grounded through his truck. He hurt his elbow, but otherwise he seems just fine.
