hmmm getting hit by lightning isnt that rare, its getting hit on tape thats extremely rare and usually fake...this one does seem fake...especially cause i dont think lightning will earth and go that far for the bike stand to get the charge... and any one can say "holy fucking shit"

now its just a matter of playing the waiting game, until this guy realises that this freak accident of nature has left him with crazy super powers that he'll use to protect the world from the first super villan that shows up. That crazy north korean guy whos been testing nukes on the ocean seems like a good canditate.

That might not be lightning. First a lightning bolt can reach up to 120 MV, enough to fry the guy and his motorcycle. With the large amount of humidity in the air caused by the rain, the damage should magnify. Second, he is surrounded by buildings and cars, both possessing conductive metal. And we all know lightning tends to strike at objects of high elevation. I do not know much about motorcycle. But if the bike’s battery is located around that area, it might just be a simple battery discharge cause by the large amount of water molecules produced the rain.

the blue bolt by his hand was edited in digitally. everything else was real. including the fact that he curled up in a little ball from the noise and only the noise.

"My spine feels so weird..."
He left out:
"And there's something squishy in my ass."

On the other hand, this seems fake:
1) why would someone be filming themselves working on a motorcycle?
2) why didn't the cameraman jump/flinch/stop filming when it struck?

Mongoose913, the bikes kickstand was touching the ground. The cars have rubber tires that do not conduct electricity. The theory wasn't that the bike was struck but that the ground was charged from the building being hit. The kickstand provided the lightning a path to his hand.
Don't really care if it's real or fake but I gotta say that was some funny shit right there.
