Hmmmm... if the key was used to conduct the electricity supplied by the lightning, and the jar was used as a capacitor to store the charge, until Ben reached for it - well I'm just wondering how much stored energy Ben recieved as a shock. Did he size the jar to store ALL of the energy, and if not how much energy did he allow to be wasted? Maybe the sky could have created a smaller lightning bolt?
