Electrocution during a thunderstorm while showering is a topic of concern, but the consensus is that the risk is minimal unless specific conditions are met. It is generally accepted that one cannot be electrocuted simply by showering during a storm, as long as they are not in contact with conductive materials like metal pipes at the time of a lightning strike. However, there are rare instances where individuals have been electrocuted due to indirect lightning strikes, particularly when they are in contact with conductive objects that are connected to the building's electrical system. The discussion highlights that while the odds are low, the potential for danger exists if the lightning strikes nearby and affects the building's infrastructure. Factors such as the conductivity of water and the materials used in plumbing can influence the risk, but overall, showering during a thunderstorm is considered safe for most people.
