Why is it that people duck in the rain, do they really think the rain won't hit them?

it is silly that we duck in the rain. but i think it's because we are trying to not get the rain directly in the face.

Thrid time answering it... It is WWS (the wicked Witch syndrome) They do not want to melt. so , getting closer to the ground will make the drops hit them at a later time, which will not save them... But they think it works.. or else hunching over is the most areodynamic way to run...

They don't want the water to get in their eyes....they'd be running the risk of receiving a jaywalking ticket from an officer looking to reach his quota of written tickets right at the end of the month.

That is kinda funny to watch! But, I think it's mainly to minimize how much gets on your face and in your eyes....

they put their hands over their head to prevent more rain on their heads.
