Lightning strike blows off man’s Crocs shoes

[Still Waters]

Awakened by a thunderstorm at his home on Bowen Island in British Columbia, Cal Misener remembered he’d left the windows rolled down on his truck.

The 50-year-old slipped on a pair of camouflage Crocs and went out in his pajamas to remedy the situation, CBC News reported.

“I reached in to turn on the ignition, and just as I had done that, bam!” Misener said, CTV News reported. “There was no warning, the thunder and the lightning hit at the very same time.”

“The undercarriage of the truck and the whole road basically became this bright orange color,” Misener said, according to the North Shore News. “It was like someone had put orange lights underneath my truck.”

That’s when Misener realized the lightning strike early Aug. 17 had blown off his Crocs and knocked him about 10 feet away, CTV News reported.
