Will I get struck by lightning if I sleep in my bed?

Yes, but it is definitely a small probability event. Let me tell you some things to pay attention to

1. If you happen to be at home when there is strong thunder and lightning, it is recommended that you have no special needs. , don’t risk going out. Do not use radios and televisions with external antennas and do not make calls.

2. Note that when your hair stands up or your skin trembles, a lightning strike may occur and you should fall to the ground immediately. People struck by lightning may suffer burns or suffer severe shock, but they are not electrically charged and can be handled safely. Therefore, it is best to be in contact with the ground during thunder and not to lie on the bed.

3. Nowadays, mobile phones have become the main communication tool in our daily lives. However, you must remember: Do not use your mobile phone when there is strong thunder and lightning! Just on May 21 this year, three villagers from Tianxin Village, Gulong Town, Teng County, Guangxi were working in the wild. They encountered a thunderstorm and heavy rain. They went to a simple watermelon tent to take shelter from the rain and were struck by lightning. Two of them died and one was shot in the foot and suffered minor injuries. After investigation and verification: First, the lightning strike point is located in an open field area, and the melon awning set up is more likely to cause lightning; secondly, there is no electricity facility within a large area of ​​the lightning strike point, and during the thunder, the two people used mobile phones. The electromagnetic field of mobile phones is the root cause.
