Two Men Killed By Selfie Stick

[Axm]

Two men were killed by separate lightning strikes over the weekend in Wales's Brecon Beacons mountain range.

One of the men is said to have been carrying a metal selfie stick.

Now a report in the Telegraph, citing sources close to the rescue of others who were also injured, is suggesting that the selfie stick may have attracted the lightning bolt.

Hopefully this is the first step towards a worldwide ban.

By the thread-title I was thinking two people got beat to death with one, but this is even better.

From the title, I thought two people attacked Jackie Chan with a selfie stick and Jackie didn't want no trouble.

I see no issue, just as long as they got some quality selfies while being electrocuted.
