ArabiaWeather.com - Sinan Khalaf - Thunderstorms and lightning strike many areas around the world. Lightning is a natural phenomenon that occurs as a discharge between negative charges at the bottom of the cloud and the wave at the top.

Statistics indicate that lightning strikes kill 70 people annually in the United States of America alone, and lightning often tries to take the closest and shortest path, so we find it always heading towards the towers of the tallest buildings.

These thunderstorms captivated many photographers around the world, so they took the most beautiful pictures of lightning strikes as they hit the world's towers.
