iPod Attracts Lightning; Teen Zapped
It's true. Listening to an iPod can damage your hearing -- especially when it's STRUCK BY LIGHTNING. Colorado 17-year-old Jason Bunch was mowing the lawn and listening to his iPod when the gadget was struck by a bolt of lightning. It appears that the current traveled up the earbud wires, fried his face and ears and lit his shirt on fire. Although he's still alive, his hearing was damaged. And he's probably going to "Think Different" for awhile.

Oh, my god. A metal device conducts electricity? iPods are evil!
Thats such crap...and did anyone ever think ummm....WHY WAS HE MOWING THE LAWN IN A LIGHTNING STORM...what a moron
iPod attracts lighting??? so if he were mowing the lawn without an iPod he would not been zapped??? wow, thats so scientific... so the next time there is a lighting storm in my town, I will go to the roof without a DAP and nothing will happen to me, cool...
he was mowing the grass in a lightning storm to listen to his iPod... he better could go inside and play with his i-thing...if he has an aple computer...
And too straight
It was probably his horrific lambchops that scored him a visit by the lightning god. Jeez, if I could hurl lightning bolts, I would burn that look from stupid people everywhere.
He should've thanked iPod for sparing him the chance to avoid meeting the unwanted girl with a perfect excuse.
mowing the lawn..sunday afternoon, thunderstorm..electronic device
wow kid
i wonder what he was listening to.
Watch mythbusters. I takes a body piercing the size of a door knob fused to your head to MAYBE cause some lightning attraction. What about the all metal mower he was playing with? No it's definitely the iPod!
if he was mowing the lawn without an iPod (or other MP3 player) he probabely was hit by lightning through his brains, means he was dead by now.
So : An iPod can save you live if you're so stupid mowing the lawn in a lightning storm.
you're an ass, don't joke about people getting hit by lightning
It's still pretty funny, I don't care if he did get hit, that kid is an idiot. Obviously, by the burns on his face, something conducted the lightning and the surge traveled up the earbuds. What a retard, who mows their lawn in a lightning storm? Honestly, I have no sympathy for him, it's all his fault.
Wow some people are assholes saying he deserved it... Maybe his mom is a bitch and made him mow the lawn, kids do stupid things who couldnt feel sorry for him.
It seems that none of you realise that lightning can strike miles away from a storm. It could have been perfect weather.
