Weather of Arabia - A video clip circulated on social media has documented a lightning strike hitting a young man in the Wadi Jazan Dam.

 

The pioneers of social networking sites circulated a video that showed a young man while filming rain and torrential rain at the Jizan Valley Dam, when he was surprised by a lightning bolt that struck him in less than a second.
