== In popular culture == * The lyrics on the 2005 EP ''3 Songs'' by [[I Hate Myself (band)|I Hate Myself]] are inspired by how Sullivan was lucky enough to survive being repeatedly struck by lightning. * In the 2008 film ''[[The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (film)|The Curious Case of Benjamin Button]]'', the character Mr. Daws often tells the title character that he was "struck by lightning seven times" (a detail that does not appear in the [[The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (short story)|original 1922 short story]]). * In the 2016 video game ''[[Firewatch]]'', an adventure game about a volunteer park ranger, Sullivan is mentioned when the main character says lightning doesn't strike twice. The character Delilah then mentions Sullivan being struck seven times as well as his death by suicide. * The 2021 short film ''Don vs Lightning'' is inspired by Sullivan's story.<ref>{{cite magazine |last1=Bush |first1=Julia |title=Being a Human Lightning Rod Is Oddly Relatable |url=https://www.newyorker.com/culture/screening-room/being-a-human-lightning-rod-is-oddly-relatable |access-date=December 31, 2021 |magazine=The New Yorker |publisher=Condé Nast |date=December 30, 2021}}</ref>
