    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Dec 11, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,391 views

    Opening illustration: Being shocked by electricity can be very dangerous. Just ask professional golf legend Lee Trevino. He was struck by lightning while sitting under a tree during a tournament several years ago. He said, “It bolted my arms and legs out stiff, jerked me off the ...read more
