No,it can fall dozens of time in the same place. Go to starryskies.com/Artshtml/dln/5-00/lightening.html

Depending on your interpretation of the myth, it can be true, there has never been a recorded instance where a lightning hit in the same way rather than the more famous interpretation of the end position.
No.
It's a saying, basically meaning that rare events are unlikely to happen again.
But lightning can strike the same place again. Lightning has no memory, and may well strike the same object repeatedly.
No. Lightning can and often does strike the same place twice, especially if that place is a tall building or tower.
Lightning can strike anywhere and it is certain that over geological time ALL places on Earth have been struck more than once. In cases where something on the surface may build up an electrical charge at a point (eg a lightening rod) then the lightning will certainly strike it much more frequently.
Also if one films a SINGLE lightning strike at high speed, it is clear that what we see as a single strike is in fact many strikes, one after the other using the same ionised discharge path between the sky and earth. So a single lightning bolt actually strikes the same place more than once.
It is a myth - lightning often strikes twice in the same place.
Yes, it is a myth.
The question is meaningless. It is a corrupt attempt to quote the old saw "Lightning never strikes the same place twice.", which in itself is wildly false.
its a myth because i was struck by lightning three times in the same spot in 25 seconds. read about it in my book "Struck by lightning" by Stephen Person
no it can but not always
It gets hit pretty often during thunderstorms. Depends on the severity of the storm. Hundreds of times a year I would guess. Lightning strikes a protection system that was installed on the antennas which harmlessly routes the lightning through the steel that the building is constructed of and out to a grounding system which disperses the energy into the earth.

It is just another myth
It is just another myth
Lightning can strikes back at one place but it's just a very very small percentage about 0.00001 percent but it can happen it's not impossible.
It usually means that the same chance occurrence cannot happen twice.

Lightning Strikes Twice was created in 1989-09.

Many people (not necessarily scientiest or meteorologists) think that lightning will not strike the same place twice. So they say that it is rare for lightning to strick twice, meaning twice at the same place. This term is used to imply something that is rare.
