Best Answer

To avoid being struck by lightning you should do a couple things: 1. Stay out of bodies of water, lightning is attracted to water. 2. dont be in an open area (common sense here) 3. Try to be in a house, car something where you cant get wet and lightning cannot get to you. To sum it all up be smart and dont do stupid things.

Despite what the person before me stated, one is actually unlikely to be killed by a lightning strike. Only about 1/5 people struck by lightning die from it. Though it is safe to assume that there will be some sort of injury.

The best thing to do after being struck would be to have someone call an ambulance. After you get checked out, just keep living your life.

Lightning can cause cardiac arrest (The heart stops beating). Check their pulse and if their heart is not beating, administer CPR. That is the most important thing to do as it can save their life.
