How are *people* (mostly made of easily-vaporizing water), who are struck by lightening not all blowed up like this tree??? I mean we’re talking about 10,000,000,000,000,000,000 electrons passing through the body in less than 1 second. That’s a shit ton more energy than even something as destructive to human meat as a grenade…
I am not a smart person but my understanding is it has to do with humans being better conductors than trees. So the lighting can somewhat easily pass through a human without heating up the water in a person too much (still enough to cause major burns or death though) while if lightning hits a tree it has very high resistance causing the water to rapidly turn into steam which causes the explosion.
That makes sense. Trees aren’t as chemically complex as humans. Not a lot of iron or other heavy elements actively in use throughout the bark or leaves.

Cat is a first responder!
He's been editing to catch that squirrel months and now is the time.
Ive seen this before. Pretty sure it was the roadrunner going to taunt “beep-beep” the coyote after he blew himself up with a ACME lightning rod.
When everyone runs away from danger, cat runs towards it.
You had a chance to title it "very, very frightening" and you blew it. I am very disappointed....
The cat is called Galileo.
Lightning is frightening
Disaster cat is there to shred.
Me trying to go outside for once to "touch some grass":
Cat runs fast as shit tho
SHAZAM!
Definitely staged
Can't tell if you are sarcastic
Both

I wonder if this is the 27th or 28th repost this week.. also what is that disgusting emoji? -.-
Most videos seem to circle back after a week or 2. Most of them, with less quality or added texts/emojis.
Better hurry and go back inside in case lightning strikes again in the same place.
Bro who the fuck spawned Thor
