Unconfirmed reports say that a local boatman from one of the Anilao dive resorts was killed last week at "bubbles" site when the banca was hit by lightening.

The lightening hit the mast of the banca where a light was located and traveled to the engine and back up to the boatman who was holding the metal stick used for steering
 
I was in Anilao that week and heard that from two banceros. We just finished a beach dive to the cathedral when we heard the sad news.
