8 things you should never do when the thunder is 

striking-Everyone does the #7 and its the most 

dangerous.... 

1.Standing underneath a tree. 

I don’t think this needs much explaining. Lightning hits high places, high places fall down, you being below them means you get crushed by a tree trunk.

2.drive the convertible 

It has rubber tires so your entire car turns into an electric death box when it gets hit by lightning. Sha-boom

3.think you are smart

“Hey guys, I think the storm is moving that way so we should be s-“ *ZAP!*

4.stay in the open

As any trained sniper will tell you, the easiest target is a target that’s out of cover.
5.leaving your pet outside

If you leave your dog outside in a thunderstorm, you’re just a bad owner and maybe you should ignore all the points on this list except for this one. Save the dog first.

6.take a shower

While the odds of it are very small, electric current can move through your water pipes and zap you to death in the shower. It’d be a constant stream of painful lightning dripping down your face.

7.using a landline

This is honestly good advice for life in general – we have cellphones now. Move on.

8.stand near a window..
