  • Lightening can strike the tv whether it%26#039;s turned on or not unless you unplug it. If your tv is still plugged into the wall, it stands no greater chance of damage whether you are watching it or not, same with the cordless phone, what is unsafe is to take a shower or bath, that can kill you. I reccomend surge protectors on all valuable electronics to reduce the riskj of lightening damage. 22% 2 Votes
  • It is ok but for safety reason they say NO. It may strike you anytime.
    Infact in USA one man was sitting in sofa and underneath his toe it was steel pin and it was thunderstorm outside and unfortunetly the thunderstorm attracted to that pin and hit the man....luckily he survived.
    So......anything can happen. be careful 0% 0 Votes
