I’m just curious during thunderstorm, if anyone tried to fire a bullet during storm into clouds? Will the lightning strike the bullet? Mythbusters or someone else maybe did that ?

Laser beams ionize particles in the air . Ionized particles are conductive. As they are lined up, they form a path.

The shooter will cause himself to be struck. Easier ways to get electrocuted
