So wood is an insulator with minor conductivity. The tree being the tallest entity in the area, the lightning struck the tree and began dissipating to ground. However, along the way, it found four more conductive paths. three people were standing and so the charge flashed and conducted through them, The fourth was a person who was literally leaning against the tree. He/she took the longest to fall because current continued to flow through the conductive path (bolted fault) whereas the current stopped flowing when the path of conductivity through the air to the three standing was of sufficient resistance (air) to preclude the continued formation of the arc.

Physics.

Water in the wood will increase the conductivity but even dry wood will conduct, which is why you do not work on energized lines off of a wood ladder.

Definitely better but still risky. Fiberglass is the way to go. There are some workarounds such as putting glasic feet on them but then you have to do the same anywhere the ladder will touch a grounded surface.

I am listening to them talking about UAP's being demons and what not and I am reminded of a navy patent for an anti-gravity craft and it is a known quantity that Lockheed already built a fusion reactor. Think enormous energy in a small power supply and then think magnetism. These craft literally repel or attract to a planet's gravity. Leave the demon stuff out. Think about the physics.

Yes, and we will never understand all of God's glorious designs because, though created in his image, we will never be omnipotent.

Anything 60 years plus might have some little green men at the core of the explanation but even then, we think about Die Glocke and Hanebu, the nazi programs. So already back there, we were playing around with technologies that could levitate.

When you get past Y2K, I consider everything seen/flying/reported to have a skunk logo on it. Man-made…….tic tac is us.

>why can others post about demons?

They are perfectly within their right to post as they believe.
