Those are umbrellas, and there are much higher metal poles in the surrounding buildings. I don’t think this would qualify for a Darwin award if they died, it’s the usual thing to go out with an umbrella in storms.
It’s a usual thing to stay inside during a thunderstorm, like the people in the background do. No wonder so many people get hit by lightning every year.
In fact I go to work by bike over an open field. If there’s thunderstorms, that we have quite frequently, I either shift times around to not get into it or take puclic transport.
Thunderstorms rarely come by surprise these days.
Don’t walk in the middle of the street with a metal pole in your hand, at least walk closer to a building.
It’s borderline insane that this is an argument at all.
Just go ahead and do what these two people did if it is deemed safe.

Some places have very frequent thunderstorms, can’t take a day off for each.
