Not. Very few people get struck by lightning. If you ask around the people you know, chances are none of them has (really) been struck by it.

Can sandstone attract lightning strikes?

It is unlikely that any sort of stone attracts lightning. However, sandstone is fairly resistant to erosion, so it may form the tops of hills and buttes in some areas. High points are more likely to be hit by lightning than low points.


Does lightning ever strike the same place twice?

Yes it can. Tall buidings have lightning conductors which are hit several times every year. It is estimated that there are 8,000,000 lightning strikes every day. Not only does it hit the same place more than once, several people have been hit more than once.Sometimes in Florida where they have a lot of lightning and they have tree nurseries They have trees called lightning trees. These trees don't get sold they are there because they have been struck by lightning before which means they are one of the tallest trees in the grove they are there so they can attract lightning so the lightning doesn't strike other trees. So if your out in an open field every time when it is raining and lightning is going on too, you may get struck more than once.It can and often has.

Why tall buildings have lightning conductors?

Lightning conductors are not put up to get hit by lightning as such. They can and do get hit by lightning but the expression "conductor" is a misnomer. They act as a discharge to ground to prevent the buildup of static charge in an approximate "sphere" from the tip of the rod to the surrounding ground. Any lightning strike will tend to go across the surface of this sphere and provide protection for the people under the sphere. Thus standing near the tall building usually gives complete protection. The taller the building the better and wider is the protection
