Lightning is simply a static electrical discharge between opposite charges between clouds, or the clouds and the ground. It occurs in order to cancel out opposing charge surpluses. Thunder is simply the concussion shock wave caused by the explosive heating and expansion of the air immediately around the bolt of lightning.

So for example, lightning will seek the closest metal or tall object (including humans).
