What if you were struck by lightning
Lightning is one of the leading weather related causes of death and injury in the United States. It is also responsible for more than 4,000 deaths worldwide annually, according to those documented in reports from 26 countries. Of every 10 people struck, nine will survive. But they could suffer a variety of short, and long term effects. Although they last just 0.1 to 00.1 seconds, lightning strikes carry an amount of energy greater than 10 million volts. To put that in perspective, a high voltage power line is usually 100,000 volts or greater and a typical home electrical outlet is 110 volts. And the peak temperature of lightning volt is 30,000 degrees on the Kelvin scale, or about five times hotter than the surface of the sun. In this video we are going to look at what could happen to you if you were struck by lightning.
