An enormous tree limb that crashed through a Georgia family's bedroom killed a father and the young son he was holding in his arms Tuesday as a fast-moving storm system pounded the South with tornadoes, hail and spectacular lightning. At least eight people were killed around the region, including several who died on roads made treacherous by downed trees and power lines.
Paramedics found the 4-year-old boy, Alix Bonhomme III, wrapped in the arms of his father, Alix Bonhomme Jr., in a sight so wrenching that even grizzled rescuers wept. Bonhomme's fiancee, Marcie Moorer, and the couple's younger son were cowering in another room during the storm and escaped injury

This is quite the story. Because when I was about 10 we had a tree in our front that was struck with lightning and went down through but instead of the tree going through the house it dropped the other way. I cant even imagine what it would of been like for the tree to fall down into our house and killed a couple family members. I had an experiance like this but the outcome was much better than this one.
