“I got hit by lightning while filming in the Everglades in Florida.” –Forrest Galante

Hair-raising moment caught on camera as wildlife biologist Forrest Galante was filming a gear review for Garmin GPS and lightning struck nearby. Not exactly sure what qualifies as getting “hit by lightning” but thats how he titles the videos. Would you say you got “hit by lightning” if you felt the electricity but weren’t struck directly?

Here’s a longer video of Forrest explaining what happened.

“I got hit by lightning while filming in the Everglades in Florida. While filming some content for Garmin, I waded into the swamps of Florida, filled with alligators, to show off some great Garmin products. While I was talking about my GPS systems, a bolt of lightning struck the swamp I was thigh-deep in.”
