Best Answer

On average, around 49 people are killed by lightning strikes in the United States each year. Lightning strikes can be fatal due to the high voltage and current they carry, which can cause cardiac arrest or severe injuries to the nervous system. It is important to seek shelter indoors during a thunderstorm to reduce the risk of being struck by lightning.
