Tall buildings actually protect the immediate area from lightning. https://portfolio.panynj.gov/2016/08/30/one-wtc-lightning-always-strikes-the-same-place-twice/

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1642349024626737155
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
