He recalls 6 lightning strikes, the 7th one is what kills him later. the movie alludes to it after he recalls the 6th time; he mentions there are storm clouds coming.
i just watched the movie again, and there are no 7 strikes.
maybe the point is, that he cant remember himself how often he got hit?! i mean, i bet you are damaged in your head when you get hit 6 times by lightning xD
@bigdragon8me The 7th was during the ending, where he was just standing next to a ranch, then he looked up the the sky and he got struck by lightning.
I watched this movie 2 times and i only counted six of them too. I don't think they put a 7th one. Though it would be funny (I laughed so hard when the parts came up)
@SpiritualKnightX nope, because he is suppose to be roy sullivan, the guy who holds the world record for getting struck 7 times, and he died in 1983 and the movie ended in 2005 during hurricane katrina
hilarious! so random! I love the way it just shows casual boring silent film footage of him in the "field tendin to my cows"....then BANG! lightening! lol
I read somewhere that the Director, David Fincher intentionally had him only be shown getting struck by lightning, 6 times because he says in one scene that he can't hardly hear, always losing his train of thought. So he didn't show the 7th because he was senile and so was only probably struck 6 times all along.
I like to think the 7th time is after the credits with that production skit with the screen going down the road and the lightening strikes next to the tree at the end. Thats where he gets hit the 7th time. "Once I was minding my own business standing under a tree." BOOM! lol
hey you know what remind me i really got struck by the plug which was cracked and start bleeding like crazy my finger turned purple but it got better and you start seeing like silver vanes on your eye and after that day I saved my mom I saw it comeing it was so cool no lie but cant proof sry but she almost got hit by a car then the guy went back wards and almost hit my mom again it was some drunk guy. but my future power thing went away after 2 weeks and a few days it is true no lie
@s3ac0w You know how there are scenes that you remember for a long time, that just really stand out. Your memory won't even connect it with the rest of the movie. This is one of those scenes for me. I love it.
To answer your question, even with the shot of him getting struck by lightning at the "curtain call" of characters at the very end, you still only see six times. I just watched the movie with the director's commentary, and he states that they only showed six of the seven times in the film, and though they filmed a seventh, it disappointingly "was not available as an Easter egg" in the special features. Also, he says the actor playing this character died just a few months before the movie opened.
i bought the movie, and in his closing paragraph he says 'some people swim, some people are mothers,... ect.' and one of them he said 'and some people get hit by lightning' and they showed the last one.
To Pyrobunny- Lightning actually comes from the ground. Well, actually it comes from the sky and the ground it's just the lightning coming from the ground is going a heck of a lot faster. If you pause it you can see lightning above him too. He just happened to be between the ground and the sky in the wrong place I guess.
me and my son giggled till we almost peed our pants. I was glad I didn't see it in the theater cuz I think we would have been the only one's laughing too. But it's good to know we weren't the only one's who got the joke, even if it wasn't meant to be a joke. I still laugh thinking about it.
someone said that the 7th strike was at the end of the credits but the dvd I rented didn't have it. I don't know if rental versions are different than a store bought dvd.
there was a part in the movie where the daughter mentions pages ripped out of the journal. one of them could've happened during one of those missing pages. oh well. we'll never know.
i used to be strucked by a lightning, but then i took a arrow in the knee.
