A 16-year-old Russian girl, Marina Motygina, was hit in the temple by a lightning bolt, it traveled through part of her body and exited near her navel. It melted and "atomized" or evaporated a gold cross necklace and pendant that was around her neck, leaving very serious scars and burns. That said, she survived and is in good health but must remain in the hospital for two weeks.
