A Twitch streamer known by the now-shockingly prescient name “Chrispy Mate” was struck by a bolt of lightning in his North Carolina home while live streaming. The content creator, who usually reviews horror games, found himself in a horrifying scenario of his own when a storm hit the town of Holly Springs. “Bro, I just got struck by lightning,” Chrispy Mate told his viewers. “I had my earbuds in. A big thing of lightning hit... I felt lightning go through my earbuds.” Speaking to AccuWeather, the streamer said he heard a bang like a drum reverberating through his head, his vision went white, and he felt concussed. The streamer thankfully escaped relatively unharmed, with only minor after-effects lingering until the next day. He also claims the electrical zap gave him an unexpected surge of energy: “I woke up, felt great, went straight to the gym and then I had the best workout of my life.”
