Owen was stealing apples from the orchard when he was struck by lightning. He was flung from the tree and escaped with minor burns. The apples down his wellingtons were stewed and his school uniform destroyed. His friend Kelvin Devlin, who was keeping 'dick', became so hysterical with laughter he was unable to help. Owen glowed in the dark for six weeks afterwards, developed a stammer and a firm belief that he was indestructible. 'O'Neill's self deprecating humour can provoke tears rolling down the face laughter' ***** (Scotsman).
