The reason it is dangerous to hold a metal pole in a thunderstorm is because metal is a conductive material, so the electricity that comes from the lightning would conduct into the metal and transfer it to your body
Pure sodium and pure mercury are two elements that would be dangerous to hold in the palm of your hand. Sodium is highly reactive and can react violently with moisture in the air, while mercury is a toxic metal that can be absorbed through the skin.

If you have a car go into it, it's one of the safest places to be during a lightning storm because of the rubber tires. If not possible, make yourself as small as can be. Avoid anything metal, remove any metal you may have on. DON'T hide under a tree, as they may be tall enough to attract lightning--trees are like jumbo lightning rods because they are filled with water. The best thing to do would probably be to curl yourself up into a ball (Make yourself as SMALL AS POSSIBLE) and wait it out... if you can't go into a building or anything.
Mercury is a liquid at room temperature, so it cannot hold a fixed shape like a solid material. It would simply flow and take the shape of its container, making it impossible to create a stable cube out of Mercury.
Household goods can use magnets for various purposes, such as in refrigerator magnets for displaying notes or in magnetic clips to hold items together. Magnets can also be found in speakers to produce sound and in magnetic door latches. Additionally, magnetic strips are used in credit cards, security sensors, and magnetic knife holders in kitchens.

On average, a thunderstorm can hold around 1-2 inches of water, but this can vary significantly depending on the size and intensity of the storm. Larger storms can hold much more water, sometimes leading to flash flooding.
if you put a metal in your microwave it will create a spark and when you hold it it will create a shock so don't put any metals inside the microwave it is dangerous

It looks like that on average, fiberglass ladders hold 225-300 lbs, while metal ladders hold 300-500 lbs, so if you need a lot of weight capacity, I would go with the metal ladder.
It's because metal is a good conductor of heat. Cups of hot drinks would be too hot to hold if made of metal.
Epoxy itself is glue that will hold to metal.
No, a balloon filled with static electricity will not stick to metal if rubbed against your head. The static charge on the balloon and your head would not be strong enough to hold the balloon to the metal.
a styrofoam cup. i tried it on my science project
no
Yes. Metal is one of the best heat conductors. An example of it would be when you hold a wood spoon and a metal spoon over a flame you will eventually have to drop the metal one unless you want to burn your hand.
no its pefectly safe aslong as you wear pants and hold a koala
