2 people are reportedly dead after being hit by a bolt of lightning on a beach in Mexico … and the horrifying incident was caught on video.<\/p>\n
The ordeal went down in Michoac\u00e1n Monday, along the country’s Pacific coast — as the weather got super nasty. You can see someone packing up an umbrella, just before the strike.<\/p>\n
After the first person is hit, you can see the lightning appear to travel along the sand to the other person … both of them collapse, causing nearby folks to scream in horror.<\/p>\n

According to Spanish outlet MARCA<\/strong>, the victims were a man and a woman — one was a tourist, and the other sold hammocks. The outlet says the woman was killed instantly at the scene, and the man later died at the hospital while receiving treatment.<\/p>\n Odds for a person to get hit by lightning are rare, at about 1 in 15,300.<\/p>\n An average of 2,000 people are struck worldwide every year, and while 10% of those who get hit are killed, the other 90% could be left with long-term effects like memory loss and seizures.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
