Note that the nearby sailboat, with it's mast the highest point, did not get struck.

Lightning does what it wants when it wants to...

Have to laugh at the cameraman's reaction. "I might have got that on tape (if I wasn't busy messing in my pants)".

Perfect timing though. I love storms and storm video....unless it's my boat being struck by lightning!!
