Lightning Strikes Woman's Tongue Stud

7 Jul 2003

A holidaymaker narrowly escaped death when lightning struck her tongue stud in an electrical storm.


Becky Nyang, 26, was temporarily blinded, unable to talk and badly blistered by the bolt of electricity that surged through her body via the piercing.

Oh, I'm the only one to have commented? Well, I expect she looked all bloody and scarred. Serves her right for getting the damn thing in the first place. If you ask me, I'd say she got it because her husband wasn't too pleased with the foreplay she was providing during sex. Or she was a fetishistic whore.

Dude. I have a tongue stud. Am I a "fetishistic whore"?
