No, apparently lightning is more likely to go at your head if you're standing straight up like a lightning rod. I guess the curve of your ass is less tempting.. like I said it's just something Ive heard. Most first hand accounts say it basically came without any warning.
I read this one account where a guy was inside his house and the lightning hit his gutter and traveled down through his window frame, passed through him and blew him across the room into the wall.. apparently him getting tossed broke all kinds of stuff. He lived to tell the tale though..
Which reminds me, have ya'll ever read up on the science behind why if you get struck once you're more likely to get struck again?.. I remember reading about that but can't remember all the facts, apparently getting nailed by a lightning bolt changes 'stuff' in you and makes you more likely to get hit again. May be urban legend, but I dont think it is..

Well the idea is for it to avoid you completely yo. Kind of impractical tho you know because if you have enough time to stand there with your ass in the air, you have time to move out of there. I think it's basis is about as rigid as telling school children to get under their desk in the event of a nuclear strike.. just something to keep on that backburner tho.

I just Googled it, didn't see anything about how it may change your body chemistry or anything. It's because most people struck by lightning often put themselves in situations that increase their chances to being stuck. The park ranger for instance probably spent the vast majority of his time outside, and if that was on high terrain, he increased the chance of it happening just by being at an elevated level.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline
