Lightning strikes
During a dragon hunters vs. dragon riders confrontation.
Hiccup (being sassy): There's less of you today. Where's Lars? Finally deserted.
Viggo: I'll have to apologise for his absence, my dear Hiccup. He had recently pass away. Struck by lightning while he was at the crow's nest.
Dragon riders:... *burst into laughter.
Tuffnut: Nice one Viggo!
Snotlout: But no one dies from a lightning strike.
Dragon hunters:...
Snotlout: Wait! You're being serious?
Fishlegs: People actually die from lightning strikes?
Ryker: Why wouldn't they?
Dragon riders:...
Viggo: Hiccup, please tell me your friends are only joking.
Hiccup: Well, none of us died from lightning strikes.
Tuffnut: Which means you are lying.
Ruufnut: You'll need to come up with a better lie, pal.
Viggo: (turning to Astrid) please tell me you have some common sense to know people die from lightning strikes.
Astrid: As we said. None of us died from lightning strikes.
Dragon hunters: (finally realising they were dealing with freaks of nature.)
I headcanon that each dragon rider's got struck by lightning at least once. And don't seem to know people actually die from it.
With the amount of times Snotlout has been hit by lightning, Iām sure none of them even bat an eye at someone getting struck by lightning
