A teen couple in Claremont,California recently survived a lightning strike, thanks to their public displayof affection.

美国加州一对来自克莱尔蒙特的情侣被闪电击中后毫发无损，这还多亏了他们牵手秀恩爱。

Couple Dylan and Lexie were holdinghands and walking down a tree-lined street recently when a thunderstorm hit,and the two were hit by a lightning bolt.

近日，一对名叫狄伦和莱克茜的情侣正手牵手走在林荫大街上，突然闪电来袭击中二人。

'It felt like I was getting hitover the head with metal or something,' said Dylan.

狄伦说：“当时的感觉就好像头部被金属之类的东西击中了一样。”

'Next thing you know, we're on theground and we gave each other the most terrified looks,' Lexie added. 'I kindof thought there was an earthquake.'

“另外一点、你懂的，我们两个都站在地面上彼此露出恐怖的神情，”莱克茜补充道，“有一秒钟我的想法是来地震了。”

A passerby then came over to helpthem up and said that they had been hit directly.

接着一个路人过来帮助他们，并告诉他们是被闪电直接击中了。

Amazingly, the couple came awayunscathed, though a little shaken.

令人惊讶的是，这对情侣虽然颇为震惊、但却毫发无损。

The couple asked a friend's mom,who is a nurse, if they needed to go the hospital, and were told it wasunnecessary.

他们有一位朋友的妈妈是护士，于是他们就请教她是否需要去医院。朋友的妈妈告诉他们——没有必要。

However, they did go see a doctorjust to get an explanation for what happened.

不过他们还是去看了医生，只是想听一听医生对发生在他们身上事情的解释。

Dr Stefan Reynoso says that theirhand-holding helped 'diffuse the electrical current' which entered throughDylan's head and then exited through Lexie's foot.

斯蒂芬·雷诺索医生说，二人彼此牵手帮助“疏散了进入狄伦头部的电流，然后通过莱克茜的脚部疏导出去了。”
