From 2006 through 2012, 238 people were struck and killed by lightning in
the United States.Almost two thirds of the deaths occurred to people who had
been enjoying outdoor leisure activities. The common belief that golfers
are responsible for the greatest number of lightning deaths was shown to be
a myth. During this 7-year period fishermen accounted for more than three
times as many fatalities as golfers, while camping and boating each
accounted for almost twice as many deaths as golf.
From 2006 to 2012, there were a total of 26 fishing deaths, 15 camping
deaths, and 14 boating deaths, and 11 beach deaths. Of the sports activities
, soccer saw the greatest number of deaths with 12, as compared to golf with
8. Around the home, yard work (including mowing the lawn) accounted for 12
fatalities. For work-related activities, ranching/farming topped the list
with 11 deaths. |
