To avoid death by lightning, avoid fishing in a storm, being male

What's the most dangerous activity for getting struck by lightning? You might guess golf, because of all the metal rods being held in the air, but you'd be wrong. According to a new study on lightning deaths by the National Weather Service, fishing is actually the most dangerous activity, with 26 people dying from lightning strikes between 2006 and 2012 (probably because it mixes metal rods with water).

Golf is much safer, at only 8 lightning deaths. The study also says the men are much more likely to be killed by lightning than women. Why? According to the NWS, men are \"unwilling to be inconvenienced by the threat of lightning.\" Basically, we're morons. – By  [Source]
