Lightning Strike Lichtenberg Figure Sculpture —Victims struck by lightning often develop
Lightning Strike Lichtenberg Figure Sculpture —Victims struck by lightning often develop red, branching patterns across their skin, often lasting several days, likely caused by delicate capillaries under the skin rupturing from the shock of the electrical discharge–a natural example of fractals. The colloquial name is “lightning flowers,” but they are also called “Lichtenberg figures” in honor of 18th century physicist Georg Christoph Lichtenberg. -- source link
