Picture Of The Day

This cow got fried by lightning passing through it's body:

When lightning hits the ground, current flows through the earth in a wide area around the point of impact. This is how a lightning strike can kill a field full of cows - the long wheelbase of the average cow means that a nearby strike induces a significant potential difference across the ground spanned by the cow's front and back legs; current flows through cow, cow dies.

So keep those feet together in a lightning storm. Now, who wants to speculate as to how good that cow smelled after it got cooked?
