- Lightening is suspected to be created by ice. Water molecules and ice stick together. Eventually the weight will cause it to break apart into small and large pieces. Large piece have a positive charge and the smaller one have a negative charge.
- Lightning is the most powerful electrical voltage on earth
- About 10 million voltage hit earth due to lightning.
- A tree will split when the water inside a tree boils after lightning hits it.
- When you are positively charged your hair will stand up. At this point negatively charged elements in the atmosphere will attract to you, making you lightning in a sense, or as we think of it, electrocuted.
- A lighting strike can have at most 200 thousand amps
- It only takes 1/10 amp to kill someone
- When lightning hits a person, most of the energy goes around the person, not though them
- A person will survive because the energy is attracted to the moisture in the skin, not to organs. After it hits the person, it will travel down to the ground.
