    The beach or on the water is the last place you want to be during an electrical storm. I've have personally seen 2 people stuck by lightning on the beach, one lifeguard on a quad, and another person walking near the surf. Don't care to see it happen again......

    smoking marijuana reduces your chances of getting struck by lightning.
