If you feel a tingling sensation or your hair stands on end, lightning may be about to strike. Do not lie down. Instead, crouch down, tuck your head, and cover your ears.

I’ve read that when lightning strikes your survival may depend on whether your heart valves are open or closed at the moment.

If they are closed, they may fuse shut.
