Red-lighting

Red-lighting/to red-light is to draw unwanted attention to yourself or another person, usually when committing a criminal act or trying to get away with something shady.

You risk red-lighting yourself &/or another person by behaving in a manner that may elicit unwanted scrutiny.

In Australia the saying is usually used by those who have a criminal background and tends to be associated with people from that demographic.

Examples;
Sitting in a car for an extended period of time when waiting to score.
Being under the influence when dealing with authority figures.

Engaging in avoidable, often pointless activities that put a person at risk of discovery when they would otherwise be in a position to evade notice such as;
driving a few km over the speed limit, using your mobile while driving, stealing something trivial, engaging in unnecessary conflict (verbal or otherwise), littering and so on.
"Mate, I ended up red-lighting myself something bad waiting for Jimbo to show."

"You're just going to red-light yourself driving to Springvale in that car."

Struck by lightning

Okay, kids, struck by lightning is NOT a sex position, like the retard that posted the other definition. Struck by lightning means getting struck by a high voltage plasma bolt. BAM! Here is your definition. Now enjoy the rest of your day and make sure not to go outside during a thunderstorm!
Jason: Greg was struck by lightning yesterday.
Alfred: Wow. Wait you meant the sex position or literally?
Jason: Literally. He's in the hospital right no... wait, it's also the name of a sex position?
Alfred: Strangely yes

lighting guy

A person that places lights, hangs lights, programs lights, focuses lights, fixes lights, designs lighting plots, and stares at the lights once they get to a venue. One of the best guys or gals anyone could have on their side. They have a wide variety of common skills. They can climb, lift, communicate, see very far, great sex appeal, creative af, tell hands what to pick up, and program lighting fixtures. Their shit may be always in the way, and sometimes they may not know what’s wrong with their lights. When it comes down to showtime, not one compliant is heard. It may not look like the lighting guy is doing anything particularly important. Really, he or she just got their shit done I promise you, or ahead of time. Any one lighting guy is equal to at least two and a half sound guys or five video guys.
Concert goer #1: Wow, look at that beautiful stage! That looks sexy af!

Concert goer #2: I wonder who makes all those lights like that? I mean, I wish I was smart enough to make awesome lighting scenes!
Concert goer #1: That would be the lighting guy. He’s that sexy mf over there at front of house in the middle of the crowd!
