In Uttar Pradesh, India, 49 people died of "deadly lightning" in a week! Can the identity of the deceased be identified?

When there is lightning and windy weather, it indicates that it will rain heavily, so most people have common sense of safety, and will not hide under the big tree to avoid the rain, nor will they leave themselves in an open place in case they are in danger. In India, the rainy season is from June to September every year. At this time, the number of heavy rains will increase, and lightning weather will often occur. On July 28th, 2022, it was reported in India that in the last week, 49 people were killed by lightning in northern India, and since April 2022, the number of people killed by lightning in India has exceeded 750.

According to Indian sources, within a week, seven people were killed by lightning in a small village in northern India, one was a family of four, and some people were grazing outside. The reason why these people will encounter lightning is that when it rains, these people will hide under the big tree to avoid the rain, and then they will be hit by lightning, and these people will die on the spot. A spokesman in northern India also said that the death toll related to rainfall usually increases during this period, but such a high death rate has also aroused the vigilance of the Indian government and quickly distributed popular science guides to the public.

The number of people killed by lightning in India has increased, and local experts have also responded, saying that every time the temperature rises by one degree, the probability of lightning will increase by 12 times, and global warming will lead to frequent lightning weather. Moreover, as the temperature rises, the surface temperature will also rise, and the water will evaporate faster, so the water content in the atmosphere will also increase. In addition, some substances in air pollution will come into contact with thunderstorm clouds, so it is easier to cause lightning.

Being struck by lightning is very dangerous. People may lose consciousness at the moment of being hit, the internal organs of the body may feel strong vibration, or they may break, the heart will stop breathing and paralysis in an instant, and many people's skin will be burned. But under normal circumstances, the appearance of the deceased can still be identified, thus confirming the identity of the deceased.
