A man who survived after being hit by lightening said he will save the shirt he was wearing that day for it was "lucky" for him. Although he is suffering from headaches and chest pain, he said he was glad to be a survivor.
Jason Ward was working in a New Rochelle masonry yard on Friday. He had one hand touching a truck and the other holding a pole when the lightning hit, throwing him seven feet away.
Ward was burned on his hands, chest and forehead. His T-Shirt was blackened.
Ward said he was "rolling like I was on fire."
He said he won't be throwing away the scorched T-shirt he was wearing for it was his "lucky shirt," and is going to have it framed.
