In modern public confidence, using the smartphone when it rains accompanied by lightning is dangerous. However, whether these myths can be proven by science?
As quoted from the site AMTA, Tuesday (03/05/2016), a person who was outside the room when it rains increased the risk of being struck by lightning if they were on high ground, in the open, near the water or near large metal structures or trees.
However, using a mobile phone when the rain is not as dangerous as the public believed. Because the phone did not contain metal content by a significant amount. In addition, the phone is a low-power device and does not have characteristics that are attractive to lightning strikes.
It was also confirmed by researchers from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) John Jensenius. According to him, the phone is not a thing that can attract lightning.
"Mobile phones, small metal items, jewelry, do not attract lightning. People are struck because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time," added John.
