00:00I think it's more likely to hit higher than lower.
00:03It can also hit lower, but of course, since the higher one is more protruding, it will hit it first.
00:11Lightning fact number two.
00:13Not only in high places, lightning hits.
00:17There are several lightning flashes that happen between the clouds and do not reach the ground.
00:22But there is also cloud-to-ground lightning.
00:25And this is what often hits the ground.
00:28More often than not, tall objects do not hit the ground.
00:32This is not a Philippine area, and it can hit anywhere.
00:36In the Philippines, even if you are simply outside, you can still be hit by lightning.
00:41Just last month, three Filipinos were reported to have died in Pulilan, Bulacan, when they were hit by lightning while bathing in the rain.
00:51So maybe it should stay away from the plain.
00:56So the floor, it should stay away from the inside buildings, I suppose, will be the safest.
01:04I think I need to check my memory from elementary school.
01:11I wouldn't suggest going under the tree.
01:14Maybe on a solid roof.
01:16Maybe it's better indoors, because you're safer indoors.
01:21Vital fact number three.
01:23It's safe to dive under a tree whenever lightning strikes.
01:27Standing under a tree is the second most dangerous place to be whenever there's a thunderstorm.
01:33And of course, open space is the most dangerous.
01:36In a way, it's not conductive.
01:39But because the tree has water.
01:41It's the tall one, it's the one with water inside.
01:44So it becomes, to a certain point, conductive.
01:47Because a tree is usually dominated by a side flash.
01:51In a side flash, lightning strikes the victim, who was hit by a higher object.
01:57In lighting science, aside from a side flash, lightning can also strike in other ways.
02:02The direct strike, where a person is directly hit by lightning.
02:07The ground current, where the energy from the hit object travels to the ground and can generate electricity.
02:15And the conduction that occurs when lightning strikes, happens through wires and metal surfaces.
02:22If you're using a computer, and you suddenly hear a strong lightning strike.
02:27The best way is to unplug, turn off all electronic devices, and just let the lightning strike pass.
02:36It's dangerous if our children see it.
02:39They still react differently whenever they see it.
