How does lightning pass through a lightning rod to the ground?
Lightning follows the easiest path to discharge its energy. Ionized air during a storm causes the lightning to seek that quickest path. A lightning rod's sole purpose is to attract any lightning in the presence of ionized air to come toward the rod. So for example, lightning will seek the closest metal or tall object (including humans).
