"Lightning doesn't often strike twice. It's a once in a lifetime thing. Even if it feels like the shock is coming over and over again. Eventually the pain will go away, the shock will wear off. And you start to heal yourself. To recover from something you never saw coming. But, sometimes the odds are in your favor. If you're in just the right place at just the right time you can take a helluva hit. And still have a shot at surviving." - Meridith Grey (Grey's Anatomy)

The man, now enraged and immortal, retaliates and kills you, and then proceeds to kill all of mankind.
