For every 1 woman who get struck by a lightning about 4 men do suffer the same.

The reasons are not clear but probably because more men walk around with pointed metal objects (golfers beware!) in bad weather than women.

About 80% of lightning victims survive the disaster but not unscathed. Here is a short list of the medical hazards of receiving a 300 kilovolt thunderbolt from the sky:

Brain and lung hemorrhage, deafness, blindness and cataract, loss of memory, spinal cord injury, sleep disorders, Post Dramatic Stress Syndrome, heart/cardiac problems, skin, muscle and ligament burns at the entry and exit points, spinal column and skull fractures, etc.

A golfer is a very easy person to buy a gift for as there are a huge array of gadgets and equipment available.

If your budget doesn’t run to the obvious new clubs or bag, then how about something a little different? These are some of my favourites.

A putting machine. If you want to keep your golfer at home a bit more or if he or she just needs some practice at putting, this is the gift you’ll want to buy. This neat little machine acts as a hole and if you’re accurate enough to get your ball in the hole, it sends it back for you to putt again. A more complex version uses mirrors to

show you how to improve your stroke.

The game of golf is a funny thing. You can love the game one minute and wonder why you ever took up the sport just 10 minutes later. The problem for the average golfer is that they never get a consistent and repeatable swing. I have three tips for you that will help improve your golf swing.

Everyone knows that you are supposed to keep your head down. But they don’t actually know when their head is supposed to move. When you swing your club, your eyes should stay on the back of the ball. But don’t hold your head still so long that it does not naturally follow the swing. If you are moving your head correctly, your eyes should

see the ball at the apex (top) of the ball flight. If that is not the first time you see your ball correct yourself accordingly. If you do this correctly, you will help your golf swing because now you are properly staying behind the ball at impact which means your arms are free to release at the correct time.

Surprisingly enough you need some money. In order to get your Guinness World Record registered, assuming that you break a record, and that you follow all the rules and regulations for the particular record that you are going to attempt, you need to register a claim form with the good folks at Guinness, and this process costs over $500 USD.

As in any endeavor, the job isn t done until the paperwork is finished; this has to be done correctly, if you are going to get a record recognized by Guinness. You will need to provide witness to the event, and they will need to fill out forms that say that the rules and regulations for that particular record were

adhered to. Photographic and video evidence of the event is also encouraged, if Guinness doesn t actually come to record the record breaking attempt. If you want Guinness to come they will send an adjudicator at your expense, the benefit of this is that they can certify the record on the spot.
