Survive after being struck by lightning, superpower or luck?

It is hard to imagine how a person could survive a powerful lightning strike of up to 300 million volts?

You may not know, an average lightning bolt possesses energy up to 300 million volts and each phase of lightning strikes has a discharge velocity of 36,000km / h. It is hard to imagine how a person can survive the lightning strikes with such tremendous " power " ?

An average lightning bolt possesses energy up to 300 million volts.

However, in fact, there are many people who still live after being struck by lightning. Some people even stand up and walk after 2 consecutive lightning strikes.

Each phase of lightning strikes has a discharge velocity of 36,000km / h.

The man was struck by lightning 2 times in a row but could still stand up and walk on his own.

How can many people preserve their lives, even if they are unharmed after such critical attacks?

Studies have shown that human survival or death depends heavily on how they were struck by lightning. Cases of lightning strikes classified below will help us answer this question.

1. Lightning strikes directly

This is the most dangerous case of lightning strikes.

This is the case where the most dangerous lightning strikes because lightning strikes from charged clouds will strike the victim's head straight. Those who are struck directly by lightning almost fully embrace the energy from the current of hundreds of millions of volts.

Imagine what our bodies will look like when a 300-volt volts current flows through our bodies. It is easy to understand when victims of lightning strikes directly face death.

2. Lightning across horizontal

The victims of lightning in this case will have a higher chance of living.

Horizontal splashing lightning occurs when the victim stands under tall buildings or tall stumps. In this case, lightning often hits on the high, the current will flow downwards and suddenly cross over to those standing near the area.

The victims of lightning strikes in this case will have a higher chance of living, because before the electric current hits the victim, the energy of the lightning has been reduced in the course of transmission through high-rise buildings. and trees.

However, the case of this lightning strike is still very dangerous to life because the current flowing through our bodies still has great energy.

3. Lightning passes through the ground

This is considered a case of lightning strikes with the highest chance of survival.

It is similar to horizontal lightning, in this case, lightning will hit high places. But instead of suddenly hitting the victim, the lightning will go straight to the ground. The current will flow through the earth and "attack" the victim from the bottom up.

In this case, victims are less likely to be life-threatening because the energy of the electric current will be greatly reduced when transmitted through trees, high-rise buildings . and through the land. Besides, when infused into the human body, electric current will go from "legs through the legs", so our heart will be slightly affected compared to other cases of lightning strikes.

4. Lightning strikes electricity transmission objects

These cases were only indirectly attacked but the death rate was very high.

In this case, the victim may be life-threatening even when quite far from the lightning strike area.

Lightning will strike objects or conducting environments as well as electrical wires, metal objects or water environments. The current will then pass through the transmission objects attacking the victims who are in contact with them.

The victims who were struck by lightning in this way were only indirectly attacked but the mortality rate was quite high, because the transmission medium was good, so the lightning energy did not suffer much loss.

5. Lightning branch

Most of them are shaped like . roots.

Among us who must have at least once seen lightning. So the lightning image is no stranger.

Although lightning has many different shapes, most of them are shaped like . roots, with one or sometimes many main lightning rays focusing energy and small rays around them.

When you are attacked by lightning, your chances of survival are very high.

In case of lightning, the victim is attacked by branch lightning with small current intensity, so the chances of survival are very high. Victims often only get hurt and even many people are unharmed when attacked by lightning strikes.

Now you have the answer to wonder if people who were struck by lightning but survived because of super powers or luck?
