Question:

If I have a metal rod in my leg, will a lightning strike give me more serious interal burns?

I know people who are wearing metal necklaces and stuff like that often get severe burns when struck by lightning (usually an indirect strike, because I'm talking about people who survived). Would having a titanium rod fused to the bone in my leg cause massive internal burns if I were struck by lightning? I mean people with necklaces have reported that it literally just melts on their body. I'm not actually worrying about this, I'm just curious.

Answer:

Strengthen your forearms. do exercises like wrist curls and the wrist roller. Deadlifts also help your grip a lot
There is no way they are going to open the vault and let you in before Monday. A passport does not need to be in a SDB. A good secure place in the house if fine a big zip lock in the bottom of the clothes hamper is a great hiding place for stuff.
why would you need it for a cruise? you will probably just have to stay on teh ship
