What is a lightning tree?

If you were in a tent under a tree and the tree got struck by lightning what would happen?

  • Answer:

    A bolt of lightning can travel at speeds of 60,000 m/s, and can reach temperatures approaching 54,000 degrees F, hot enough to fuse soil or sand into glass. It is possible that you could survive a strike that close but the odds are against it. It would depend on the path the strike of lightning took.
