A woman in southern China narrowly escaped severe injury after a lightning bolt struck her while she was washing dishes in her kitchen.

The terrifying incident was captured on video in Nanning City in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region on August 12.

The woman was performing her routine household chores when, suddenly, a bolt of lightning crashed into the kitchen, creating a scene of utter chaos. The kitchen was left in disarray, with sparks flying and the entire area engulfed in a terrifying flash of light.

Miraculously, despite the intense and life-threatening ordeal, the woman emerged with only minor shock and no serious injuries.

Meteorologists have weighed in on the bizarre occurrence, explaining that lightning typically targets buildings based on factors such as height, conductivity, and the surrounding environment.

In this case, experts speculate that the lightning may have been drawn to metal pipes or electrical appliances within the kitchen, leading to an electrifying and dangerous situation.
