Lightning strike in south London during the summer of 2008

The chances of being struck by lightning are around one in three million so it's not something that most people will ever need to worry about. But for bricklayer Brad Gifford from Northamptonshire it became a reality. He was out walking his dogs when he was caught in a thunderstorm. He spoke to Newsbeat reporter Sam Naz about his lucky escape.
