Sophie Frost and boyfriend Mason Billington, both 14, were sheltering beneath a tree in a storm...

Personally, when I'm taking The Lord's name in vain while standing in a bucket of water on a hill during storms, I take great comfort in knowing my first generation Shuffle and headphones are there to provide adequate earthing.

*Also, do you think either of them pooed?

Loved the following comment relating to the article!
Talking about the time that still scars her as a 5 year old! must have had a tough life, wander if she has been able to open up about her ordeal!

"steve walker you are not a sensible adult that was a ridiculous comment and i cant believe you have good rating. Want to ask them now whether they wished they had got soaked or electrocuted? he might never see properly again.! At 5 i was caught with my family in a huge storm and it poured with rain we ran and ran until we got home and had warm baths and towels even then i knew not to stand under a tree."

Warm baths and towels saved the day.
