Experts warn of lightning-strike injuries with iPods

I originally thought that this was an article to warn people of a potential health hazard with the popular device. However after reading it, I realized it is an article to warn people of the potentially hazardous STUPIDITY OF OTHER PEOPLE AROUND THEM:

"The Canadian jogger suffered worse injuries, according to a report in Thursday's New England Journal of Medicine.

The man, a 39-year-old dentist from the Vancouver area, was listening to an iPod while jogging in a thunderstorm when, according to witnesses, lightning hit a tree a couple of feet away and jumped to his body. The strike threw the man about eight feet and caused second-degree burns on his chest and left leg."

Sometimes the advances in modern medicine piss me off. For example, by keeping IDIOTS LIKE THESE ALIVE.
