Lightning Facts!
Lightning once destroyed a massive collection of Star Wars memorabilia. Star Wars fanatic Graham Duck was once victim of a lightning strike that would’ve made Darth Vader jealous. When a bolt struck the roof of his house in northern England, a fire ignited in the attic, where he kept £20,000 of Star Wars toys and memorabilia. All the irreplaceable action figures and collectibles were destroyed. If there was ever a question that Force Lightning was a Dark Side power, this settles it.
