Supoj catalogued the losses—they lost a motorcycle, a freezer, clothes, a TV, a refrigerator, fans, and all other electric appliances totaling to an estimated loss of 700,000 baht. If they were home when the lightning hit, they could have been in danger.

No 5 million savings under the bed?

Lightning rods are earthed, they run from the roof into the ground to deflect any strikes!

Isn't that how the York Minster lightning rods were connected?

The couple rented the house which was "destroyed" in fact "razed to the foundations so, does the 700k value include that of the house as well as the renter's personal effects? Has the owner commented?🤔

I had a pair of lightning rods installed on my house, when I built it – a high sacred palm tree on the neighbour's land, which was designed to stand in the middle of their luxury house under construction, got hit by lightning and died – so it's probably not a bad idea to be protected, and presumably much cheaper than a damage on one's house.

 

Do you have lightning rod on top of your house?

No I have a tin roof on steel beams, welded to the steel inside the concrete pillars, that go at least a meter into the ground.
