Play video at funeral. It will stop people from crying

Sorry to hijack your comment, but from a medical or physics standpoint can someone explain what happened and why he exploded in a ball of light? His shirt seems to have incinerated, but he's not on fire at all? And did he go unconscious or did he just immediately die? Physiologically speaking, what happened to his organs/internals?
- 5 Context
He lived, at least for a period of time after this.. In the original he wakes up and is moaning and shit.
- 3 Context
About 50 - 100 volts is sufficient to kill a human. These electrical poles are a few kilovolts that causes severe burns to his internal organs and tissues. The current causes severe damage to the nervous system and messes up your cardiac rhythms causing arrhythmias, ventricular fibrillation or even cardiac arrest accompanied with shallow breathing or complete respiratory failure. Now chances of survival are negligible, there are people who even managed to survive a lightning strike but if you do manage to live, you will live in extreme pain and agony for the rest of your life and basically a barely living vegetable.

Why would lighting 1 one time effect my life forever?

There are few posts on lightning aftermath on WPD, you could search it up.

It's not the voltage that matters, that's really just a measure of electrical potential (or "pressure" driving the current) and it's the combination of amperage, frequency and duration that's the real measure of how deadly a power source is. For instance a shock from static electricity is easily many thousands of volts and that's nothing to worry about. Electric fences at thousands of volts will just give you a painful hit. Even getting a shock from something with much more current like a home power outlet is usually survivable, but something like an arc welder for example might be half the voltage but the high amperage has much more potential to kill you.

Lightning is static electricity, last time I've heard its not "nothing to worry about". Many things wrong with your statement.

Obviously you know what kind of common static shock I was referring to that everyone has experienced as an example, sorry you seem to have been upset for some reason by me pointing out that there's a lot more to it than just voltage 
- 2 Context
Common static shock isn't thousands of volts. And nah I'm not upset, just correcting what you said. I'd be happy to be proved wrong if I really am.

Lol, I love it. Homer is a moron but man I grew up watching the Simpsons. Some great writing in it. Futurama was an amazing show too with I think even better writing.

Futurama was great, start to finish. Stuffing it to FOX in their comeback was awesome. Simpsons was great, but didn't turn out anything spectacular after season 10 ish

Ladies and gentlemen, i'm sorry to inform you that the dumbass somehow survived.

Yeah there's a much longer video on here showing him recover. Can somebody find it?

Kinda same but I do not deny that he got it well deserved

I'm not sure if this is the guy and there's a much longer video or if it was a different dumbass. But either way, both were nearly identical, the dumbass touched the power line, fell to the ground, and after a minute or so he started moaning, and moving slowly. Eventually he stood up, and stumbled around, incoherently, and thats where the video ends. Not sure if he lived or died. Like others have explained, even if you survive initially, the damage on the inside is generally much worse than what you see on the outside, and your organs are so damaged, they begin to shut down. Somewhat similar to radiation. You might not look too bad externally, but your cells and DNA are so badly damaged, they cannot replicate properly, or at all, and your body basically dies from the inside out. Do a search on Japanese Radiation accident and the individuals exposed and alive for a couple of months. There's photos and a book about it. The one individual, exposed to the most gamma rays came in the hospital with what appeared to be an external burn. Looked like sunburn, all red. He actually thought he would go home later that day. As each hour passed, his appearance changed, and he grew sicker and sicker. Within a few weeks he was begging the doctors to let him die. Really sad event.

What did he think would happen?

10 insulators. 138,000 volts. My hair is standing up. Dude, that's some fucking...Let's see. If I wave my arm like this - - - - I can get a nice spark. Yeah and you're dead too.

IIRC every time this is posted it is shown that dude lived, just fyi. If someone doesn't chime in here wait a few days.

Holy fuck. They're all just saying the same things. Cuck, cuck, cuck, cope, cope, cope, beta, beta, beta, cope, cope, cope. And these are the same people who'll call others NPCs. God, redditors are such an insecure, miserable bunch.
