Don’t stick a metal pan on your head in a storm.
(he lived)

HOW!?

EDIT - Wow, lived and wasn’t even hurt. Lucky!

I’d guess the added risk of having a metal pan on your head is pretty minimal compared to the ‘being outside when lightning strikes’ part.

Yeah, I don’t know if a metal pan grounded through your head will attract lightning any more than your bare head will. The resistance is still pretty much the same either way.

The resistance of a human being (even a wet one) is like… billions of times greater than say, steel.
Lightning rods work for a reason. He just decided to make himself into one.

I think his secret identity was just blown is all.

Yep - the reason lightning rods work is because they provide a low-impedance path all the way to ground. Putting a metal helmet on a person no more makes them into a lightning rod than does putting a wire lead on a 1 megohm resistor make it a short-circuit.

I was build to fight, not to love

The animations in that game are amazing.

Then again, the whole game is amazing. So yeah.

And what game would that be?
