Back in the 70's we were making hay when a cloud burst sprang up. We had a wagon load of small bales, and a big tarp that we threw over the wagon. We were taking shelter under the wagon, it was raining so fast that there was water standing on the ground. It was a small field with big trees around it. so we figured that was a good a place as any to shelter, as the trucks were a long way off. I was laying on the wagon coupling pole to stay out of the water, with only my hands on the ground to keep from rolling off the pole, when lightening hit nearby.
