Since either event depends on voltage to do the mayhem, it seems to me anyone with a pacemaker would have no chance of survival.
How about anyone outside with a path to ground. If the voltage and current potential is great enough to fry the grid, why is the assumption that it would not fry people? Say, if you happened to open the water tap to get a glass of water or put a foot to ground from your car at the moment the event happened. If you happen to be in a modern airliner?
We make all these plans for the aftermath, but how many would survive the event?
