Get yourself a cordless DeWalt Sawsall. Cut the bugger a little at a time. Or not. Put the debris out with the trash.

Chance of being struck by lightning in an hot tub during a lightningstorm?

Kiki22
Because last night my friend and I were in an hot tub and then a thunderstorm with lighnings started and we didn't want to get out so we stayed a couple of minutes but we were wondering What are the chances of getting struck by lightening if we are in an hot tub (spa) while its storming?
Thanks for the informations ! :)
The hot tub was outside, but don't worry next time I will get out immediately ;) I won't stay there watching the lightnings !
Answer
Was the hot tub outside or inside? If outside, the chances are increased. Chance is there but the lightning is more likely to strike something else that offers a better path to ground.
If inside, the chances of getting shocked or electrocuted while taking a shower/bath is there but low.
Older homes use copper or metal pipes for the plumbing. Metal and copper make great conductors of electricity. If a lightning strike should hit a house with metal pipes, the chance is there but still low. There are far too many other things to strike. Lightning is a static electric discharge that tries to find the path of least resistance to ground. A metal pipe going through a wall does not offer a least resistant path to ground so it isn't the path.
Newer homes use plastic pvc pipes for plumbing. Plastic is not a conductor of electricity, thus if lightning should strike a home with plastic pipes, the chance of getting shocked or electrocuted is very low.
