Omg! Man Gets Struck by Lightning Right Inside His Kitchen But What Saved Him From Death is Unbelievable (Photos)

A man was in his kitchen when he was hit by lightning right where he was, however, what happened to him is not what was expected.

The man identifiied as Brian Phillips, was struck by lightning while clearing up in his kitchen but he survived the ordeal because he was wearing slippers.
65-year-old Brian Phillips was holding a 10-inch carving knife when the bolt hit his home – throwing him across the room.
He escaped without serious harm thanks to the pair of rubber-soled loafers he was wearing.
The widower received the £15 Marks and Spencer slippers from his daughter as a Christmas present.
Brian said: “It was the biggest bang I have ever heard. It sounded like it was in the room with me while I flew back against the wall.
“I was dazed when I got up and I couldn’t work out what had happened. I didn’t know if it was a bomb going off or a gas explosion.
“The paramedics told me the slippers probably saved my life as they checked my feet for exit marks but they believe the rubber kept me grounded.
“My slippers are ready for the bin but I’m going to keep hold of them after that. They’re not just any slippers. They’re M&S slippers.”

Brian was clearing up after dinner on Sunday evening when the lighting struck his home in Bedford.
He was cutting off a slice of turkey for his cat Emma when the force of the bolt hurled him several metres across the room.
Brian, who landed with the knife still in his hand, said:”It would have been quite ironic for me to have survived being struck by lightning, only to have stabbed myself with a razor sharp carving knife.
“They told me to go to hospital but it wasn’t practical. I’ve been electrocuted before and fallen through a roof in the past.
“I am like a cat, I have got nine lives. I felt a little dodgy after banging into the wall but I am carrying a little bit of weight which probably padded me in the blast.”
Retired BT worker Brian, whose wife Margaret died of cancer three years ago, wears his slippers whenever he is at home.
He was given them the Christmas before last by his daughter Sarah Tyers, 29.
Brian received a telling off from nurse Sarah for not visiting hospital following the incident.
He added: “I probably should have gone but I was just a bit dazed.”
