Ms Kutluol claims an electric shock ran up her left arm, leaving her with extreme pins and needles
This is the terrifying moment a mother-of-two's phone records being struck by a bolt of lightning - as she tried to film a thunderstorm.
Tracey Kutluol, 43, was filming the storm from her living room window when her iPhone was zapped by the thunderbolt at 10pm last night.
The dramatic footage shows Ms Kutluol, from Galashiels in the Scottish Borders, joking 'I'm going to get electrocuted' as she opened her window to get a better look at the storm.
The video shows dark clouds and thunder can be heard before a flash of lightning strikes the phone. Ms Kutluol, who was with her children Max, ten and Mia, 14, while filming the video, said her life flashed before her eyes.
Ms Kutluol claims an electric shock ran up her left arm, leaving her with extreme pins and needles. She said it was her new rubber phone cover - delivered just hours before she was struck - that saved her life.
