Moment fisherman survives after being struck by lightning twice (video)

Footage has emerged of a fisherman getting struck by lightning, twice. 

In a video shared on Reddit, two fishermen can be seen waist-deep in a river during a storm. 

The pair brave the weather as they move in deeper, in the hope of landing their catch of the day. 

Then as one man picks up his rod, it gets struck by lightning and he immediately drops it, shaking his hand. 

The man who had just been struck decided to pick the rod back up again and he was once again struck by lightning. 

It was at this point the fishermen finally decided to wade out of the water.
