Since yesterday's question didn't generate many responses, I am inflicting more of the same upon all of you. Connect these visuals.
Answer: The connect is Ernest Hemingway. The visuals are Kilimanjaro, Joe Dimaggio, Running of the bulls in Pamplona and the Metallica album Ride the Lightning. The Snows of Kilimanjaro is a short story collection by Hemingway. Joe Dimaggio is a central character in the Old man and the sea. Spanish bull fights feature prominently in many of his works including Death in the afternoon and The sun also rises. The Metallica album Ride the Lightning has a song For whom the bells toll based on the Hemingway novel of the same name. Mekie + Raghu, Hirak, Keshav, Rajeev, Rahul Trivedi, Manix and Shweta got this one. Well done.

L to R: Snows of Kilimanjaro, Joe DiMaggio, Pamplona (bull running), Metallica's Ride the Lightning album.
In Hemingway's Old Man and the Sea, the characters discuss Joe DiMaggio. Hemingway wrote 'Death in the Afternoon', a manifesto on bull fighting. In Metallica's album, the song 'For whom the bell tolls' is based on Hemingway's novel of the same name.

Lightning.....
1) Giraffes are prone to lightning strikes
2)Yankees player and broadcaster Phil Rizzuto who was phobic to lightning
3)Bull Running in Pamplona -- Guess
the connect is to do with bulls running with lightning speed
4)Metallica Album Ride the Lightning
The Snows of Kilimanjaro, Death in the Afternoon (bullfighting), "Have faith in the Yankees, my son" (from The Old Man and the Sea) and finally For Whom the Bell Tolls (Ride the Lightning) - common thread is Hemingway's novels.
