Becky survives holiday horror lightning strike

BECKY Nyang was left feeling a little down in the mouth after a brush with death when she was struck by lightning on the Greek holiday isle of Corfu.

 

The 26-year-old special service agent for Virgin at Heathrow is still shaken and recovering at her west Reading home after the lightning bolt zeroed in on her lip and tongue piercings.

 

The drama began when she and a friend were forced to flee the beach at Kavos by an approaching storm and Becky was crossing the courtyard of their hotel.

 

She said: "When it hit me all I could see was lightning. It was a bright blue and I couldn't see anything else. My body was shaking for 10 minutes."

 

Temporarily blinded and unable to speak she suffered burns to her mouth - where the lighting hit the two metal piercings - and a large bruise on her shoulder at the point of impact.

 

Two weeks later Becky, of Argyle Road, still finds sleeping difficult and is getting fed up with people joking about the holiday recharging her batteries.

 

Doctors say she suffered no cardiac damage but her heart muscle was affected by the lightning strike, releasing enzymes into her blood, and she must undergo a series of tests before being allowed to return to work.

 

Becky admitted: "I feel a bit different within myself as I know how close I came to losing my life, and never seeing my loved ones again.

 

"I have been given a second chance at life and every second is precious. I thank God I'm alive."

 

 

Well, here's one good reason to go ahead and stab metal shit into your face under the premise of fashion...

Wonder if she'll inexplicably develop Tourette's and then fade from the public eye?
