Would you rather be struck by lightning or attacked by a shark?

I'd rather have the shark struck by lightning.

Lightning please. It's quicker, and if you survive you probably still have your legs.

Lightning.Then I might be lucky, survive the jolt, and end up pyschic! :D

Struck by lightening. Then I would hope to develop cool abilities like be psychic or control electricity or something. : )

Lightning

Struck by lightening! I am TERRIFIED of sharks - I can't even swim in a pool alone or at night.

I have ben struck by lightening (indirectly, though it was enough to pin me to the ground then throw me several meters...) and it wasn't pleasant...Have nursed shark bite victims, and oh, my biggest fear is being eaten alive - sharks, lions, crocs (shudder) - so definitely lightening - it will either kill me or I will be ok, it is quick (lightening fast, lol), painful sure, but nowhere near as bad as seeing some monster bite off your leg and eat it - or proceed to eat the rest of you after it has swallowed the leg!!

Ofcourse lightning...fast.

I would much rather be struck by lightening -- I was and I survived. It happened so quickly it was over before I knew it had happened. The shock pretty much paralyzed the nerves so there was no real pain until well after the fact. I had burns on my shoulder and the ball of my right foot, but other than that, no serious damage.

I have never been attacked by a shark. I have been in the water close to sharks. I can imagine that a single strike attack by a shark would probably be similar to being struck by lightening -- fast and painless, until later. However, a prolonged attack would be like getting eaten alive, one bite at a time. I don't think that would be much fun.

Lightning please.

Lighting!
