Next to the farm that I grew up on there was a Holiday Cottage. Next to the cottage there was a 140ft Douglas Fir.
One night a bolt of lightning hit the tree and travelled down to the base burning the bark off at about 20% of the circumference for the whole length and went into one of the large roots. The root went under the house and the lightning went into the first room on the other side and blew up the electric meter, a cupboard, a gas bottle and both the windows.
The owner turned up the next day in a bit of a panic thinking that someone had broken in and blasted the place to pieces with a shotgun. :roll:
