ABOUT THE FOUNDATION

He was also a cousin, nephew, grandson, and friend. An individual that was enthusiastic, caring, loving, considerate, debater and a great listener. He was an entrepreneur who was not afraid to try new things. He was an accomplished rapper/producer, owned and operated Hype City Entertainment Studio. He always looked out for the little guy employing numerous people in his various businesses such as WYV Home Improvement, Where's Your Vehicle and BEPTV Cartoons, just to name a few. He contributed to the welfare of homeless people and to anyone that needed a helping hand.
LIGHTNING EFFECTS
A person struck directly by lightning becomes apart of the main lightning discharge channel. Most often, direct strikes to victims who are in open areas. Direct strikes are not as common as the other ways people are struck by lightning, but are potentially the most deadly. In most direct strikes, a portion of the current moves along and just over the skin surface (called flashover) and a portion of the current move through the body usually throught the cardiovascular and/or nervous system. The heat produced when lightning moves over the skin can produce burns, but the current moving through the body is greatest concern.
