$\ast \bf \:Answer$

$\leadsto \bf \: Franklin \: \: Experiment$

Franklin's experiment demonstrated the connection between lightning and electricity. To dispel another myth, Franklin's kite was not struck by lightning. If it had been, he probably would have been electrocuted, experts say. Instead, the kite picked up the ambient electrical charge from the storm.

$\boxed { \bf \: Conclusion}$

By conducting the kite experiment Franklin proved that lighting was an electrical discharge and realized that it can be charged over a conductor into the ground providing a safe alternative path and eliminating the risk of deadly fires. But he warned never to conduct this experiment as it is full of risk.
