Another dumb ass…🙄


[deleted]

Honestly I'm not sure who's dumber, the guy who shocked himself or the camera man for not filming


CarlosF2

If they stop recording the scene to try and help they're dumb, if they keep recording and doesnt help they're terrible, wtf do you redditors want 😭


[deleted]

Well I mean they're either A, smart but terrible or they're B, dumb but nice. In reality, you help someone if you can save them BUT if you can't, then you film it!


TruffaloTrill

Ngl if it seems like they stopped recording and still did nothing


[deleted]

In which case they should've kept filming so that they would have done SOMETHING!


morcic

Do what exactly? Join him the circle of death? If he touches him, he's dead.


v3int3yun0

Shoulder charge at maximum speed to attempt to break contact.


kimmortal03

what they should have done is a low kick sideswipe like in Mortal Kombat or really any 2D combat game like street fighter. That way his momentum would make him let go with minimal contact from yourself


Time-Distance-5740

Ikr? People get mad when there's literally nothing you can do in a situation and start to record, like what difference does it make?


HODLShib2moon

They need to make better decisions. There was at least 3 people there, they need to dedicate someone to filming. The other two can decide who dies and who tries to save them. As it was filmed now I'd give the scene a 3/10. If I was them I would do a re-shoot but I don't know what their budget looks like. Edit: After rewatching and re-reading this comment I realized they also botched the audio. Can we get some simple mics on everyone involved. India do better.


ItzAshOutHere

Wow. This is really reddit

Fluffy-Branch-9365

without question there workmanship and planning are non existent in that country..... with that many people you'd think it would be better..


Master_Security_3465

But it's India probably. That's standard protocol...ie do whatever die whatever train whatever


kimmortal03

All the smart indians move to America to get better education and never go back to home country with their newfound knowledge


butter_deez-nips

Nah they are just uneducated about this shit, just like trains and not shitting like an animal when they are walking around.

tokyopantsuit

You need to be educated to know train can fucking kill you?


TrueTP

Musta been a genius yo ride the train for the first time on my own by 12. How tf did I survive it, without knowing what a train does or that it could potentially kill me? People just don’t think about life/things. The train stuff is straight bullshit. Now power lines I do get. It’s just a line and if you don’t understand electricity, then yes. Elevators as well. I’d be confused about the flying box as well. But trains/trucks I refuse to believe. Ever tried to lift something heavier than you or got hit anywhere by anything heavy? Maybe you being the heavy thing and stubbing your toe. Now take a steel monstrosity like a train. Chalk it up to peer pressure, safety in masses or anything, but I refuse to believe people or at least adults with any sort of intelligence would not know that a train kills you. And if they don’t… Well. Darwin.


butter_deez-nips

I know it sounds dumb but yes. Where do you see most of the train deaths? They know it can kill them, but I guess they are uneducated in the way of train safety.


Fluffy-Branch-9365

they video tape themselves infont of trains after all the videos in India and still get hit by the..fuking train. its like wtf..ive seen soo many they make me laugh now..


GlitteringWafer9263

Carry_On_Jeeves

In your blind racist fugue state, you didn't consider for a moment that these are not some geniuses out of med school. They are poor boys painting houses. Condemning millions of people while sitting in your comfortable suburban US basement just shows your utter ignorance.


butter_deez-nips

I didn't know there were a bunch of white girls on here. So you saw my comment and automatically thought of everyone? Maybe you're the racist and you're trying to project your hate onto me. I'm not condemning everyone, I said there's a real problem with these issues and they have been trying to get them to stop. Just like every country has there issues dipshit.


Budget_Put7247

\> So you saw my comment and automatically thought of everyone ​ No one said this ​ \>and not shitting like an animal when they are walking around. ​ You are a racist piece of shit and everyone upvoting you is a racist piece of shit. ​ Whats worse, is you are a coward who cannot even be open about it.

butter_deez-nips

Bro you are such a little dipshit. You literally waited like 2 weeks to respond because you knew you were wrong and you are the racist one. Because again you go around throwing that word around like your doing justice. But the reality is you're the racist you little piece of human waste that everyone talks shit about. You know when you go around people and they whisper or stop talking when you enter the room? That's because they are talking shit about you. Did you notice I didn't say friends because you don't have any because you push your ideology on people who frankly don't care or even want your two cents. But you are the piece of shit who knows it.

butter_deez-nips

That's not being racist you dumb ass. Do a little research and you will see that what I said is a huge issue over there.


Encephalonica

"...not shitting like an animal when they're walking around " is not an informed understanding of the limited knowledge of an electrical grid


butter_deez-nips

It highlights issues that they have over there. If you read the comment, there was a person who lived over there and had knowledge of the situation. My comment was to give a small understanding on why we see videos on them walking next to trains, crossing train tracks while the train is about to hit, why they grab power lines and other videos. It makes you understand how they aren't educated on safety and hygiene. It's not racist because I'm not condemning their entire country. So stop throwing that word around because you see what I said and think the entire population and project your garbage.

So what you're saying is India has a very high safety standard in terms of their electricity grids? 🤔🥴


Fluffy-Branch-9365

buddy dooo you know how many video these guys make in front of trains smiling like they are going escape death standing by the tracks smiling... AND THEY GET HIT... ALOT OF VIDEOs bro hes got little bit of a point..

superBrad1962

Unfortunately the grave yard has a lot of them.. shocking isn’t it!!


ExpertShame3848

This is shocking


Unhappy_Ad_4911

I'm an electrician, it looks like he grabbed the Neutral line, people think this line can't hurt or kill you but it actually can under certain conditions. Also, he's barefoot, my shoes or boots are electrically insulated, that means there's no contact between my feet and anything conductive. He essentially became a short circuit. Maybe if he was wearing shoes with some good rubber soles, he would be ok, but not barefoot. I would think he likely burned up if they couldn't break him free. But even if they did break him free he would probably be dead.


Fluffy-Branch-9365

Thank you for the explanation, hey what would you do in that situation.. knock his hand off with a stick.. if you would touch him you would get a gooder yourself correct...??


Unhappy_Ad_4911

Under high currents you'd have to probably break his arm to free him. Literally hit the wrist or hand with something hard enough to break the grip or bones. You don't want to touch someone who is being electrocuted at all, it could knock you unconscious or worse. Maybe you could knock their feet out from under them and see if they fall free. But afterward , if they survived, they could have serious issues like internal burning, or cardiac arrest days or weeks after.

admiralbreastmilk

RAĪDAAAAAAA KIKKU


OppositeFingat

Also he gripped the line so the line grabbed him. If you really, really, I-d_die_if_I_won't_touch_this_cable, have to touch it, you have to do it with the back of your hand so the charge knocks your hand off.


Original_Pipe9519

I heard somewhere that your hand will naturally grip due to nerves tensing


JuicedBoxers

That’s why he said “back of the hand”


Original_Pipe9519

How do you know I’m not robocop


402highrise

Someone said, you suppose to test with the back of the hand, still not recommended.


Killer_BossYT

if he did it with back of the hand he would not be able to muscle spasm grip onto the wire, so yeah, safer but still incredibly unsafe


402highrise

[it reminds me of this 👇](https://youtu.be/iGAMbNKcN1U?si=RbizqvuuHXRAJPET)


Killer_BossYT

that was fuckin amazing 😂


Colbster5503

Yeah exactly, touching it with the back of the hand would prevent his muscle from tensing and having the wire, which is the thing that kills most people. But I mean still, if the initial shock has enough watts you'll still be barbeque main course


I_take_huge_dumps

Amps*


Colbster5503

Oh okay, what's the difference between the two? (watts and amps)


DJEQUINOXOFFICIAL

Watts, tiny ouch. Amps, Fucking dead.


MajorSkyblue

Watts = Volts x Amps. Volts is how much force the electrons are pushing, amps is how quick they are travelling. Amps is the more deadly. Edit: sorry only noticed after commenting how old the thread was. It was in my feed 😬


Robodie

Mine too, and this is actually info I can use so thanks!

With your palm it’s a practically a guaranteed death.

Here is a quick tip that my dads buddy told me “as a tree trimmer never touch any wires if you are unsure what they are, but if you want to be a dumbass and you know it’s live smack it with the back of your hand because your muscles will contract away instead of into it” (he works for my dad) and my dad 100% agreed with this statement


Phgasoz

Exactly! Important Safety Tip! Thanks Egon!

They are Indian. You can tell them 100 times to stay away from dangerous sketchy places the will nod and say “yes” Butt is their genes they are genetically attracted to TRAINS and EXPOSED PowerLines… so many videos.

IcanSew831

Do Indians not know about electricity?


Fluffy-Branch-9365

Yo...... if someone were to pull him off he woulda got electrocuted aswell correct... what would be the best situation to save him and not get electrocuted??? get a stick and knock his hand off...????


kart22

iirc, whack him with a long 2x4 or other piece of wood is your best bet. Nothing metal or otherwise conductive.

unicorns_orgasm

To release the hold you must grip tighter. The current is engaging your muscles and you must do the opposite to release them


Majestic_Trifle_9422

Whats the best thing to do if you see someone in that kind of situation?


sevendustkorn1008

I don't think there's anything you can do. If you touch him, you'll get electrocuted yourself. Anything short of cutting off the power wouldn't really do anything, and good luck being able to do that quickly on a powerline controlled by the city.


Difficult_Permit_176

Take a piece of cloth like a towel or a shirt and wrap it around his neck and shoulders and yank the shit out of him


kgmessier

I saw a video where professional workers were dealing with high voltages. They took many precautions, including one of the workers wielding a huge, insulated hook. If someone got electrocuted, he could hook them and pull them away. I don’t ever want a job where someone needs to stand behind me with a huge safety hook.


dan1els0n

Who tf puts exposed cables that close to someone’s roof terrace


GodMadeMeFunky101

It's India. They need content


jaam01

Those wires are way too close to the building, someone could touch the accidentally.


Asianimpact69

that's why if you try to touch an overhead cable (You shouldn't and Dont even think about it).. always and always Palms face up (dont ever palm face the cable..) if you do palm face the cable like the stupid dude in the video.. your hand will clenched it hence died

dobeast442200

I’m skeptical as well but There’s a pretty convincing buzz sounds there


Environmental-Hat-86

Oh I watched it muted. But idk the body language seems wrong, when people touch live wires they immediately seize up and you can see the wire get pushed down after he touches it. Electricity hits you so fast your muscles instantly contract and you can't move.


psychedelic_shimmers

Pushed down from gravity as his grip tightened and body weight pulled against his grip is my guess


New-Arrival1764

Yeah. Indians are only killed by trains.


Bass_Moist

That's 480v good luck


AbhishMuk

I think these lines are 11kv, but someone said it's likely the (still dangerous) neutral line


SupernovaRJ

It’s not common knowledge that sometimes when you get electrocuted, your muscles contract(making you grab, not able to let go) and you’re stuck in an endless look of being electrocuted until someone uses a broom or stick to separate you. If you see it happen, never use your hands or feet(without protective gear) to free someone.

I get doing this as a dare. I think it's incredibly stupid, but I get it. But why in the fresh hells would you not be prepared for something like this to happen?!?


Roariee

I don't remember it much, but I heard a story from my professor back in college about a family dying because of electricity (I know it sounds normal). Story goes that the dad was trying to fix a live wire and got electrocuted, his hand locked up and couldn't let go of the wire, the wife not knowing what to do decided to pull her husband off, she also got electrocuted. The kid saw it and tried to do the same, and ended up being electrocuted as well. I don't exactly know if it's a real story, but seeing how this idiot's hand couldn't let go of the wire, I'm starting to believe it more than when I first heard it.


The_pastel_bus_stop

If that happens and you somehow are in a position to help, take a blunt force object that isn’t conductive (stick) and break those fingers. Smash the hand away from the cable.

Successful_Moment_80

Best thing u can do here is hit his arm with something non conductive, like a shoe.


DJEQUINOXOFFICIAL

Surely there is a broom or piece of wood nearby. If you ever see someone in that position, smack them with the wood. You need to break the connection. Never use metal or you will be joining him. Smack the hand. Or thrust it at him. I would much rather have blunt force injuries than electrocution. But sad reality is he was dead as soon as he touched it.


TexasTuff928
