Because if you don't, you could anger the gods and get struck by a lightning bolt from above - or get hit by a missile from an unmanned drone aircraft.
How often do planes get struck by lightning?
Quite frequently, especially cloud to cloud lightning. This was rarely a problem with metal planes, but with modern composites which don't conduct electricity well, severe damage has been known to occur.
Why is it important not to stand outside in a lightning storm?
The tree could be struck by lightning, which would cause the tree to fall, and maybe even catch fire. It could KILL you. ANSWER: Lightning is attracted to the tallest items in the landscape. Therefore, a tree in a field would be more likely to be struck by lightning and you, since you would be leaning against it, would be struck as well.
Does lightning hurt an Airbus?
No, lightning does not hurt any modern aircraft.
Will a plane crash if lightning strikes?
Planes are designed to safely withstand lightning strikes. Aircraft are equipped with systems to dissipate the electrical charge generated by a lightning strike and protect the aircraft and its passengers. While lightning strikes may cause temporary disruptions or damage to the aircraft, it is highly unlikely to result in a plane crash.
Has lightning ever struck close to you?
Yes, lightning has struck close to me before.
Will carnivorous animals eat another animal that has been struck by lightning?
It is unlikely that a carnivorous animal would eat another animal that has been struck by lightning. The electrical discharge from a lightning strike could harm the animal's tissues, making it unappetizing or potentially toxic for consumption. Additionally, the smell and appearance of a lightning-struck animal may deter predators from consuming it.
How does airplane escape lightning?
Sometimes it doesn't escape. There are documented cases of lightning hitting aircraft.
How aircraft is protected from Lightning?
The aircraft has a special coating that somehow repels lightning so the aircraft isn't affected. The coating is usually aluminum which is a very good conductor of electricity. I hope this info has been of help to everyone.
When was Albert Einstein struck by lightning?

Do radio antennas get struck by lightning?
Yes, radio antennae do get struck by lightning. This possibility does not mean that lightning is attracted to it especially. Lightning is not attracted to anything in particular, but you are warned to stay away from high things and conductors like water and metal. If you are near a conductor, you could end up getting hurt since lightning travels fast. If you are near a tall thing, like a tree, if it gets struck, it could catch fire or fall over on you. I suggest if you aren't in a building the safest place to be would be a car.
