Three people in Britain took selfies in thunderstorm weather and were struck by lightning. How to avoid such a tragedy?

Since kindergarten, teachers will teach us not to hide under big trees when it rains. At that time, we had a preliminary understanding of this. Although we don't know why we can't hide under the big tree when it rains, in primary school, the teacher also taught us not to hide under the tree when it thunders and rains, telling us that hiding under the tree is very dangerous. It was not until we studied physics in middle school that we knew that we couldn't hide under trees in rainy days. This is because standing under a big tree, when powerful lightning flows into the ground and spreads around, it will produce different voltages in different places, and the voltage difference between human feet will cause harm.

One: the selfie under the thunderstorm was hit by lightning. Three brothers and sisters from Maidenhead, Berkshire, England, rode horses together in Surrey and were caught in heavy rain on the way. In desperation, the three men chose to hide under a big tree in Molesi Locke near Hampton Palace. At this moment, isobel jobson, a 23-year-old doctoral student, took out his mobile phone. First, he took a picture of three people smiling. Unexpectedly, at that moment, a group of lightning hit the mobile phone and they fell to the ground instantly. Fortunately, kind passers-by sent them to the hospital, and all three survived and were discharged. ?

Second: Never hide under a tree during a thunderstorm. As the saying goes, if you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer. Our predecessors told us the truth with experience. We should believe in and eliminate these potential dangers. Don't take chances, decide that we won't be so unlucky. Nature will not play jokes on you, except hiding under big trees, or hiding in high places and empty places. When it thunders and rains, it is forbidden to stay at the top of the mountain or high hills, avoid the vicinity of telephone poles, and do not walk or stand in the open fields. You should hide in a low-lying place as soon as possible, or try to find a room floor or a dry cave to hide.

Three: protect yourself and read more books. There are still people studying for a doctorate this time. It stands to reason that they should know simple basic knowledge, but they still chose the worst shelter from the rain, which led us to be struck by lightning. You should also know more about some basic common sense at ordinary times. We often say that curiosity kills people and ignorance kills people.
