Taking shelter under an umbrella with a metallic head during a thunderstorm increases the risk of being struck by lightning because metal is a conductor of electricity. It is safer to seek shelter in a sturdy building or a vehicle during a thunderstorm to avoid the risk of being injured by lightning.
