Nature is truely amazing! I'm only afraid of lightening if it strikes too close or if a terribly loud thunder follows. I do however awe in the beauty of it.

When I was younger I was very afraid and go under my bed. in these days I respect it, surely don´t go under a tree when it´s thunders in the sky. For me it´s one of the most powerful and beautiful shows that nature can gives us.

Lightning is scary, even indoors I feel very uneasy, the bolt of lightning always gives me the chills.

No, I'm not afraid of lightening. I think it's awesome to watch and marvel at it. It's so powerful and we have yet to conquer it (and won't actually).

I love lightening no matter if I am inside or outside. There is something very exhilirating about it. If I'm meant to be hit by it, then it's not going to matter where I am at, inside or outside.

Yes I am afraid of it, especially when it brightens up your whole room. I hate it too when thunder follows.

I am. As long as it happens when I'm not near by, I'm happy.

I never used to be, but this past summer our weekend getaway was hit by a tornado. The next time we were there in a storm, as soon as the lightning started we both freaked out and ran to a nearby friend's. It really wasn't any safer there, but we felt like it was. I still think it is the most awesome sight, as long as I am watching from somewhere safe and not in the middle of a forest!

Lightening - Purple Lightening
I grew up in Calgary, Alberta where thunder and lightning is common as apple pie. I use to sit out on the deck and watch the storms for hours. The last year I was living there a tree up the stree got hit by lightening and exploded and it sent eletricity down the street blowing out TVs and Microwaves. It was very scary but awsome how mother natures furry is so powerful.

I am not afraid of lightning if i am in my house or if its just sheet lighting. When its that spikey looking stuff that can be kinda scarey!, I flew back the other week from USA to Mexico and the whole flight there were lighing bolts shooting past the windows late at night..i wasnt happy lol
