Narrative

Crew shut down because of bad weather. They had waited 45 min for storm to pass but it showed no indication of stopping so the helper got out of work truck and went to the rig & turned off the master disconnect. As he was getting back into the work truck, lightning struck the work truck. Helper's right arm was hurt along with burn blisters on both feet.
