Jesus actor struck by lightning


Actor Jim Caviezel has been struck by lightning while playing Jesus in Mel Gibson's controversial film The Passion Of Christ.

The lightning bolt hit Caviezel and the film's assistant director Jan Michelini while they were filming in a remote location a few hours from Rome.

It was the second time Michelini had been hit by lightning during the shoot.

Neither of them was badly hurt, according to the film's producer Steve McEveety.

Michelini had previously been struck during filming in Matera, Italy, when he suffered light burns to his fingers after lightning hit his umbrella.

Describing the second lightning strike, McEveety told VLife, a supplement of the trade paper Variety: "I'm about a hundred feet away from them when I glance over and see smoke coming out of Caviezel's ears."

Now that is a very interesting news clip.

It'd be nice to get that footage in the DVD extras.

Undoubtably. God, in his infinite wisdom, must zap humans to get his point across. I'll tell you what, the big G' is getting a little too abusive. What happened to the fun-loving God that endorsed sunshine and smiles?

Oh right . . . he never existed.

ssssssssnap!
