Lightning DVD |

Since before Ben Franklin tied
a key to his kite, man has attempted to understand--and even
tame--lightning. And though countless discoveries have been made and our
understanding advances all the time, lightning remains unpredictable and
extremely dangerous. Approximately 100 people are killed by lightning
every year, and countless more are injured. |
