False! They carry no electrical charge and should be attended to immediately!
A sudden electrical charge that accompanies thunderstorms is called lightning.
I read a book by an electrical engineer who said, "When lightning strikes the earth. there is a positive charge in the earth from which sends runners up toward the base of a cumulonimbus cloud which has a negative charge. The negative charge sends out runners toward the runners of positive charge. When the two charges meet, the lightning charge goes toward the earth and the result is a bolt of lightning.
Static discharge is causes the spark that is seen when electricity in a thunderhead discharges. The most common name for this type of spark or discharge is lightening.
because it creates a charge and lightning needs eather a negitive charge or a positive charge
The charge separates.
People who have been struck by Lightning does not carry a residual charge. Lightning goes straight through the body and into the ground. There would be no electrical charge left and they would be safe to touch.

A sudden electrical charge that accompanies thunderstorms is called lightning.
Lightening is created by the immense masses of different air pressures colliding and creating friction. The electrical charge is obvious from the friction.
The lightning symbols that if the naked wiring is touched you will be electric shocked, but it is mainly for the use that it could be a lightning charger, or just to show that electricity is used to make the charger charge the phone.
No. When a bolt of lighting strikes the ground, the electrical charge dissipates to ground very quickly. The lightning may cause fires or destroy trees or steeples, but the residual charge is gone within seconds.
Lightning has an negative charge
I read a book by an electrical engineer who said, "When lightning strikes the earth. there is a positive charge in the earth from which sends runners up toward the base of a cumulonimbus cloud which has a negative charge. The negative charge sends out runners toward the runners of positive charge. When the two charges meet, the lightning charge goes toward the earth and the result is a bolt of lightning.
Only if you are outside using it during an electrical storm and get struck by lightning
Before a lightning strike, a charge builds up along the water's surface. When lightning strikes, most of electrical charge occurs near the water's surface. Most fish swim below the surface and are unaffected.
Static discharge is causes the spark that is seen when electricity in a thunderhead discharges. The most common name for this type of spark or discharge is lightening.
Lightning is an electrical charge and Human being are sensitive to electrical stimulants at very low levels in their nervous system. in the first place introducing an electrical overcharge the size of a lightning charge overloads the system and can under the right circumstances cause damage and painful muscular spasm that can kill. the sheer volume of electricity can also simply heat and damage living tissue as it is not designed to withstand this force in the way a light bulb filament does.
