In truth, there are actually data on this. Several years ago, I looked this up, and there were 7 people in the US who had been hit twice by lightening and survived.
I looked it up in reference to comparing the odds of winning the Powerball vs getting hit by lightening twice. The twice-struck odds were almost 10 times greater than buying the winning Powerball ticket.
Those who are struck are in a pool of people who are much more likely to be struck.
Just as those who are mauled by a bear are in a pool of people much more likely to be mauled by a bear.
The article says comparing bear attacks to lightning strikes is silly, just propaganda.
