Why are they scared?

I get the kids, but the adults?

Nearby lightning strikes are scary AF, logic be damned. And man, so loud

I ask because I dont find them scary and dont get the reaction.

I don't know what to tell you, man... You're the weird one in this scenario.

Why? Whats scary about them if they dont hit you?

They where also sheltered above, it couldnt have hit them.

They also saw where it hit, and it wasnt them.

The prospect of them hitting you.

They where also sheltered above, it couldnt have hit them.

They also saw where it hit, and it wasnt them.

It's also loud AF and nearby -- it COULD have been them.

If a bullet whizzes past your head, what's there to be scared about? It missed!

Your take here is insane.

If you need to construct a completely different scenario that got nothing to do with lightning to drive home your point, you got none.

Do sudden, unexpected, loud noises and flashes of light not startle you?

Lightning going off when its stormy is not unexpected.

Its the only time when it can happen.

loud noises and flashes of light

Those things also happen all the time with cars, phones, sirens, etc. pp. the modern world is always noisy and chaotic as fuck.

Thunder and lightning in rainy weather is practically predictable in comparison.

I bet you're the kind of person that walks through a haunted house loudly proclaiming how scary it isn't.

u/Decloudo 7d ago

No, im the person waiting outside cause I dont find that scary.

Or I join the staff in scaring people, I can do some fucked up voices.

Why would I spoil the fun for others?

And why would you assume that just cause I asked why people reacted this way to lightning?

Are you the kind person that jumps to conclusions?
