Rider Hit By Lightning And Rides On

  • Imagine being hit by lightning while riding and living to tell about it!


    LaDue, 59, was traveling on interstate I-5 near Chehalis, WA., around 9:30 a.m. when the thunderbolt made a direct hit on this motorcycle helmet.

    Martin Zapalac was traveling behind the motorcyclist and stated that he heard a loud “boom” and saw LaDue’s helmet “light up”; the rider then began to slump over and somehow maneuvered his bike safely to the shoulder of the interstate.

    His helmet took the hit....see the pic at the link below.
