Great video! I've always wondered what would happen if we got struck by lightning!

Got struck by lightning yesterday while flying back to Sydney from Brisbane in quantas. There was a big flash and a noise. Was terrifying.

Lightening strike inspection takes yo much time
Most of the time there’s damage
In two different locations called : entry and outlet points 🇩🇿

Are static wicks on the wings as well?

[danielbigtiger]

the answer is, the plane may collapse or stall

Also, sometimes passengers with silky hair tend do develop some static electricity when running fingers through it... is it normal, and if not, what's the best way to reduce it?
