A 13-year-old Briton was struck by lightning at 13:13 on Friday the 13th. He escaped with only minor burns.
The teenager was struck at Lowestoft Seafront Air Festival Friday, Aug 13. The ambulance team that was treating him noticed the time - 1.13 p.m., Daily Mail reported.
The victim suffered a minor burn and was taken to James Paget Hospital, where he is expected to make a full recovery.
Two other people were treated at the event for lightning strikes. They were holding umbrellas when lightning struck them.
Rex Clarke of St John Ambulance volunteers said: "We got a call that someone had been struck by lightning so we immediately sent our paramedics to the scene, followed by an ambulance. Lightning strikes can cause cardiac arrest, but when our volunteers arrived the boy was conscious and breathing.
"We treated two more injuries from lightning burns in the space of twenty minutes - all three people were holding umbrellas at the time, which acts as a conductor for electricity."
