abstract="We report an extraordinary event of a lightning strike to the head of a helmeted bicyclist that occurred under fair weather conditions with a cloudless sky. The patient sustained a cardiac arrest and hypoxic encephalopathy with residual neurologic impairment. With the availability of highly developed meteorologic equipment, we were able to determine that the lightning &quot;bolt from the blue&quot; probably originated in a thunderstorm that was about 16 km away and obscured by the mountains.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
