Dude, this is nuts!

This lady happened to be taking video as she followed her husband down a Tampa area freeway, and then this happened:

Yup, that truck got "fried" by the lightning strike, destroying the vehicle's electrical components. Everything turned off, and the truck just kinda coasted to a stop at the side of the freeway.

Also, a police car which was driving right next to the truck was turned off by this strike of lightning. They're not sure if this was a ricochet or if the lightning actually struck the squad car as well.

I love this from the driver's son:

"After everything was done, my son said we needed to check ourselves in a couple days for superpowers," Brian Whalen said.

Not a bad idea after a strike like that!

Luckily, everyone here is okay...

Besides the whole superpower thing.
