He won’t be safer if he stands under the tree.

Explanation:

Safety measures during thunderstorm when we reside outside are:

● Look at the sky. Look for dark skies, lightning, or rising winds. Lightning often falls in the rain, so don't wait for the storm to start. If you hear thunder, go immediately to a safe place.

● The best place is a stable building or a car, but make sure the car windows are closed. Avoid sheds, picnic areas, baseball shelters and bleachers.

● If you don't have protection, stay away from trees. Crouch in the open area and stay twice as far from a tree as you are tall. Bring your feet together and place your hands over your ears to minimize hearing damage from thunder.

● When you are with a group of people, stay 15 feet away.

Stay away from water. It is a great conductor of electricity. Swimming, walking, diving and snorkeling are not safe. Don't stay in the puddles either.

Avoid metal. Stay away from clothes lines and fences and drop your backpacks as they are often covered with metal.

● If you are doing an outdoor activity, wait at least 30 minutes after the last lightning or thunder observed.

From the third point it is clear that we must stay away from the trees.
