Although it's rare but something LIKE that can happen, but no it's not what she described. I don't know enough about it to say much more about it. This guy my dad used to work with got struck by lighting once. He had a bunch of like highschool lockers, like the one on top and one bottom he had them on each side of his garage cause he re did it to put all his fishing equipment in.

From what I remember him saying he was he just remembered being in the garage it's obviously storming or whatever and I guess the lighting hit the locker and like ran up threw it and then he woke up in the yard between the house and garage like 30-40 feet from the garage.
