Lightning strikes are indeed a strong source of phobia for many people. This fear generally stems from it being a sudden and uncontrollable natural event. In fact, the probability of being struck by lightning is quite low. However, those who suffer from 'astraphobia' or 'brontophobia' can experience serious panic. In this case, the fear can be significantly alleviated with therapy, breathing exercises, and techniques to create a safe space. Otherwise, this situation can lead to serious anxiety.
On social media, moments of intense lightning strikes were compiled together. The resulting video not only startled those with the phobia, but also made everyone who watched it feel a lump in their throat.
