This one's pretty much unbelievable.

The video below will probably blow your mind, as a man casually walking in a storm gets hit out of nowhere. It's incredible.

So incredible, in fact, it's hard to believe.

Every year there are 200 to 1,000 reported lightning-related injuries, according to Slate. On average, 67 Americans are killed by lightning annually.

Four in five survivors after getting struck by lightning are men.

So what do you think? Is this fancy camera work or a real strike caught on film?
