An entire family have survived being struck by lightning following a storm in the German city of Chemnitz.
One woman, Ricarda, told the Bildnewspaper she was chopping wood in the garden while her children were playing when it started raining.
She said she was about to collect the garden furniture and head inside when she heard a loud bang and felt “a tingling sensation from head to toe”.
“There was chaos,” Ricarda said. “Everybody was just acting on autopilot. A few minutes later the ambulance arrived.”
Her nine-year-old nephew collapsed and had to be resuscitated by his father and grandfather. He is currently being treated in intensive care, according to Bild.
