Here's some detail about Roy Sullivan, the current struck by lightning record holder.
Roy was hit by lightning the first time while he was in a fire lookout tower. The lightning bolt struck him in a leg and he lost a nail on his big toe.
The second strike hit him while he was driving his truck on a mountain road. This one knocked him unconscious and burned his eyebrows off.
The third struck him while he was in his front yard and burned his left shoulder.
The fourth strike occurred in the ranger station again. This one set his hair on fire. After that, Roy began to carry a pitcher of water with him. He also started to believe that some higher power was trying to kill him.
The fifth bolt struck Roy on the head, blasted him out of his car, and set his hair on fire again.
The sixth strike hit Roy in a campground, injuring his ankle. Roy reported that a cloud was moving in his direction which he thought was following him. He tried to run away from it, but was struck anyways.
The seventh lightning bolt hit him when he was fishing. It is unknown if he caught any fish.
