RN,
it's inevitable that some remote possibilities will eventuate - but most will not. On this occasion it appears one has done so - as HC reiterates excellently above. To put it another way, it's very unlikely you'll be hit by lightning in the next 24 hours, but good odds it will happen to somebody somewhere. When it happens and is on the news, it doesn't make it any more likely it will happen to you or anyone else, nor does it mean we need to start an inquiry as to why we'd not all been warned to wear fireproof dielectric hats.
