@robchapmanfishing: Volume up!! LIGHTNING IS TERRIFYING!! ⚡️ I’ve had this sent to me so many times (because lighting scares me more than anything on the water) … see why 👇 🎥 Video by @NA Fishing @Jessi D. Lambert DYK ⚡️ • Men are struck roughly four times as often as women. In the United States, men account for 84 percent of lightning fatalities, and women make up the remaining 16 percent. • Lightning isn’t that thick. In fact, it’s only an inch or two across. It just looks wider because of luminosity. • Never shelter under a tree. If lightning strikes a tree, the charge can flow through the trunk and laterally strike individuals beneath it, or also spread through the ground. Many lightning tragedies have stemmed from individuals seeking shelter beneath trees. • Don’t be the tallest object. Avoid hills, mountaintops or open areas as lightning tends to strike taller objects in an area. #fish #fishing #lightning #nature #Outdoors #science #kayak #kayakfishing #nextcatch #builtwilddna #thunder #terror #weather #thunderstorm #storm #stormclouds
