Lightening strikes reported by ipod Users

Book Abstract by: tiffanyabc20     

Original Author: Linda A Johnson
When do we fear our surroundings?  We spend our days and lives trying to figuar out how we can live more comfortably. 
There are man made things like our electronics.  How many people today are afraid of being struck by lightening?  We are in a postion where man and nature fight.  It turns out that you can be badly burned if you walk outside with an Ipod.The reports are in and the Ipods are no longer outdoors.  These people are proof that scientist can be proven wrong.  There are more casses like this.  It was said that a dentist was jogging out side in the rain and some lightening had stuck a ways back from him.  It turns out that the lightening had jumped to his body.  The lightening struck to the metal on the Ipod.  Then the Ipod was taped up his chest and ran up his body.  Having burns on his chest and other parts of his body.  Now why don''t they just say do not jog in rain.  Why do we as Americans have to try our man made objects against nature.  There are also other people that have challenged the theory on accident too.  Doctors report that there are hundreds of others that come to the emergency room.  The patients say that they were all walking in a storm with portable electrical devices and had been electricuted. Some exstreme others minor.You would think that before you leave you should be more catious about what your backing.  My point still remains Don''t chance the laws of nature and don''t challenge both safe man made electrical devices in rainstorms.  Most likely you can be struck too.  Save the rain for the outdoors and the electrical devices for the indoors.  Please remember that the Ipods are not the only thing electrical we have to fear in the rain storms.
