8 Things You Should Never Do When The Thunder Is Striking by Rexcharlesblog: 11:43am On Oct 27, 2018
Thunderstorms seem to be much more prevalent with our climate, Haywire and Thor will be part of Avengers. Nevertheless, many people seem to be unaware that a well-aimed flash bolt can at best destroy your day seriously. Let's take a look at some things you should not do in thunderstorms and / or when Thor is close.

1 Stand under a tree


I do not think this needs to be explained much. The flash hits high places, high places fall down, you're under them means you're being crushed by a tree trunk.


2 Run a convertible

It has a rubber tire so that the entire car becomes an electric deadlock when hit by the flash. Sha-Boom!
3 Think you are smarter


"Hi guys, I think the storm moves in such a way that we should be s-" * ZAP! *


4 stand in the open place

As someone trained sniper will tell, the simplest goal is a goal that is not covered.

5 Leave your pet outside



If you leave your dog out in thunderstorms, you're just a bad owner, and maybe you should ignore all the items on the list except for this one. Save the dog first.

6 Take a shower


While the odds are very small, the electric current can move through your water pipes and sweep you to death in the shower. There would be a constant stream of painful lightning in your face

7 Use a landline

This is honestly good advice for life in general - we have mobile phones now. Move on.

8 Stand close to a window

Windows may have metal parts that can be electrified when they are hit by Zeus' thunderbolts. Do not go close to them or touch them, no matter how much you want to see the bolts meet the ground.
