Approximately 30 percent of deaths from lightning strikes result from fulminant heart attack. According to medical and research centers, this is due to the effect of a large amount of energy discharge that passes through the body in milliseconds.
This electrical current discharge passes through the body, creating a very high heat peak that causes severe burns and tissue destruction.
Although burns caused by lightning can affect the skin, their main injuries occur at the level of internal tissues. They also cause damage to the central nervous system and brain, as revealed in forensic tests on people killed by lightning strikes.
In fact, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, “about 10% of people struck by lightning die, mostly from heart attacks.”
