You wll get hit by lightning if you are the closest thing near by but that usually happens when you are in a open feild . Just for the tall people you may want to lay down flat when lightning is being seen .
Lightening strikes most in places where there is a lot of metal. It does not hit places where rubber is. It can hit anything that leads to the ground.
