Had a friend get struck by lightning in grade school. Had a mark on his lower ribs and his ankles if I remember correctly. From where the current moved through him. He was paralyzed for a couple hours after the strike. Scary stuff. After that, any time we were outside and heard a rumble, we promptly moved inside. To this day, whenever there's lightning about, I either remain inside or move with absolute purpose (e.g. run to/from a car).
