Man continues fishing after being struck twice by lightning

Two men were fishing despite heavy rain and thunder. When one of them picked up his fishing rod, lightning struck it. The frightened man immediately threw the rod away.

However, the lesson was not fully learned. The fisherman picked up the rod again, and history repeated itself - lightning struck a second time. This moment, captured on video, caused a stormy reaction from viewers.

Some users tried to give a scientific explanation for what happened. One of the commentators noted that it was probably not a direct lightning strike. Rather, the discharge passed through the rod and the man due to the high conductivity of the rod.
