Deaths & Injuries from Lightning Strikes

--:--
Should you bath/shower/wash dishes during a lightning storm? How safe are you in the car and should you talk on your phone? Should you unplug your computer/TV/appliances? Last year we hosted Prof. Efraim Kramer who spoke about lightning in SA. Our lightning storms are frightening with more South Africans dying by lightning in the summer months than at any other time of the year. In this replay, Prof. Kramer explains how we can reduce the risk of death or injury from strikes.
