Here's a statistic for you: the average plane gets struck by lightning about once a year.
Because people really need another reason to be afraid of flying...
But lightning almost never causes plane crashes— at least, not anymore.
So what makes planes so safe in thunderstorms?
Well, a lot of it has to do with what they're made of.
Planes are usually made of metals like aluminum, and the ones with parts that aren't,
usually have metal frames or fibers in their shells.
And metals tend to be good conductors of electricity.
When conductors without any big gaps in them—like the outsides of planes—get hit by rapid
bursts of charges like lightning bolts,
the atoms in the conductor push all those incoming charges out onto the conductor's
surface instead of letting them flow inside.
In other words, lightning never makes it to the inside, where passengers and crew and jet fuel are.
It gets stopped by the plane's surface.
The process is known as the skin effect, and it's also the reason you're safe from lightning in a car.
A lot of people think it's the tires, but the tires have nothing to do with it.
It's all thanks to the metal shell of the car, which pushes the lightning to the outside
instead of letting it get to the inside where you are.
The skin effect is so effective that you'd be completely safe inside a shell of aluminum
just a few millimeters thick, even while lightning hit the outside.
But even though the metal shell should mean that planes are safe,
lightning did used to cause plane crashes.
Back in 1963, for example, lightning went through a plane's fuel tank and caused an
explosion that killed all 81 people on board.
So things can still go wrong—even with the skin effect helping out.
Lightning can be powerful enough to punch holes straight through the thinner parts of
planes, like their wings or noses.
But small holes aren't the main concern when it comes to lightning.
Planes have lots of wires and electrical instruments—and as you can probably imagine, sensitive electronics
tend to go haywire if lightning goes through them.
But engineers have learned from their mistakes.
Today's fuel tanks are rigorously tested to make sure they have no problem withstanding
lightning bolts.
And the fuel itself has been changed over the last few decades so that it doesn't
produce as many explosive gases while in the tank.
All the instruments on board are also grounded by connecting them to something like the plane's
metal surface, which gets rid of extra current coming in from the lightning.
There are even little strips or conductive sticks near especially sensitive equipment
like radar that act like lightning rods and make sure that the radar doesn't get struck directly.
Storms are still dangerous places to fly for lots of reasons,
from wind and rain to air turbulence.
But at least lightning isn't really one of them anymore.

Lawsuit Claims Fox News Made Black Employees Arm Wrestle White Employees - Duration: 4:12.
Just when you thought things couldn't get any worse, or to be honest, any weirder, in
the constant, horrible allegations coming out about behavior of those at Fox News, a
new lawsuit, filed by two black women, former employees of Fox News, said that the network
engaged in systemic, and quite frankly disgusting, racist behavior and discrimination.
According to this lawsuit, one manager at Fox News forced a black woman to arm wrestle
one of her white colleagues, while all of the other white men stood around and laughed.
They thought that it was fun, making this black woman humiliate herself, to put on this
little production of arm wrestling, so that they could get a cheap laugh at the black
woman doing what the white man says.
That's what happened, according to this lawsuit.
The lawsuit also alleges, that at the network, black people were consistently overlooked
for promotions, in some cases even demoted from their current position, in favor of white
people, and that this happened with relative frequency.
Additionally, they referred to black men as women beaters, and racial slurs were not uncommon
at the network, according to this lawsuit.
So here's the thing that we have to talk about now.
We have to talk about the behavior, the mindset, the corporate environment, that Fox News has
created.
This is a dangerous place.
Even with Bill O'Reilly gone, you're not free from sexual harassment, cause we know that
Sean Hannity is now being accused of that.
You're not free from racial discrimination.
It's not one host in particular, it is this toxic masculinity, white masculinity, that
is ingrained in this network.
That's what they do, that's who they are, and it comes through on the air quite frequently.
They have no respect for women, for people of color, for Muslims.
All it is, is white male Christians.
Those ... or, pseudo Christians, I should say.
Those are the people that Fox News respects, as long as they vote republican.
But those are the only people within that network that have any kind of privilege, any
kind of security that they can walk into work every day, and not be harassed because of
their gender, or because of their race.
At this point, there needs to be a full scale investigation of everyone at that network,
to find out what in the hell is going on.
Because the stories that are coming out of that network, just in the last few months,
are growing more disgusting by the day.
And this lawsuit proves that.
How many more of these horror stories are we gonna have to hear, before somebody steps
in to protect these employees?
How many more people have to get harassed, whether sexually, or emotionally?
How many more people is it gonna take, before somebody finally steps in and shuts down this
disgusting, misogynistic network, that is providing no benefit to the American public?
Fox News has outlived its time, and at this point, the more we learn about their disgusting
behavior, I think it is past time for the government to step in and go ahead and issue
a corporate death penalty for Fox News, and get them off the air
for good.

Rugby Player Delivers Brutal Sucker Punch, Makes Rugby Relevant in the US for a Few Hours - Duration: 1:43.
For Complex News, I'm Hanuman Welch.
Considering the United State's penchant for bloody contact sports, it's weird that rugby
has never taken hold here.
Essentially kill-the-man-with-the-ball on a nicer field, rugby has largely been relegated
to an international fan-base, but after this next video, maybe the US will think about
getting behind a pro-league here in states.
A man named Benjamin Casty, who is the brother of French rugby star Remi Casty, was serving
as a referee for a French junior cup game over the past weekend.
In the course of his duties, he gave a yellow card to a player who then countered by knocking
him out with a single punch.
After he was done with that extremely quick exchange, he threw a second punch at an opposing
player, which ignited a brawl
Now, that was by all accounts a sucker punch, and according to the Independent, the unnamed
extremely angry individual was already suspended for four matches earlier in the season.
Marc Palanques, who holds the position of French rugby federation president, called
for discipline for this player's latest transgression to be "uncompromising," which could mean a
lifetime ban is on its way.
As for Casty, he was rendered unconscious by the blow, and reportedly suffered cheekbone
and jaw injuries.
Because, I mean:
