10 Things More Likely To Happen To You Than Winning The Lottery
10. Being Struck By Lightning
In your lifetime, you have a 1 in 950,000 chance of being struck by lightning. Depressing? Dont worry - only 10% of those struck actually die. Besides, how at risk you are largely comes down to where you live. This is bad news for Venezuelans who suffer more lightning storms than anywhere else on earth, one region taking 40,000 lightning strikes every single day. In the USA, Florida folk should take cover as you incur Thors wrath more than any other state, while the most at risk Europeans are the Spanish and the French. There are, however, also secondary deaths related to lightning that should be accounted for, such as the gunpowder factory in Luxembourg that was hit by a single lightning strike, exploded and killed over 300 people.
