With the advent of monsoon, incidents of lightning have increased. One person died due to lightning. Do you know how to save a person from lightning and where lightning strikes the most?
Before knowing who are the people most affected by lightning, let us know how lightning is formed and why it takes people's lives.
According to information, in 1872, scientist Benjamin Franklin first explained the exact reason for lightning flashing between clouds. He said that clouds contain small particles of water, which get charged due to friction with air. Some clouds are positively charged, while others are negatively charged.
Let us tell you that when both the charged clouds collide in the sky, millions of volts of electricity are generated. Sometimes the electricity thus generated is so much that it reaches the earth. This phenomenon is called lightning.
It is often said that during the rainy season, when uncle and nephew go out together, there is a possibility of lightning striking them. Apart from this, black snakes and black objects also get struck by lightning.
According to scientists, all the beliefs about lightning are wrong. Actually, lightning can strike anytime and anywhere. Lightning does not strike any particular person or place.
