Context: a man is recorded climbing up on an electricity pole. His wife narrates:
Only God to guard my husband. It must be at least 10 meters, 7 meters high this pole.
He will draw electricity. Lord, guard him, in the name of Jesus. Guard him - he is in your hands.
I will stop filming because it makes me nervous.
A high-voltage line. Only Jesus to guard my husband. Look, the ladder is on top of the wall.
a sudden zap of electricity
AAH, MY GOD. MY GOD, MY GOD. OH JESUS. AAAAAAAAAA.
Help! Call the fire department for the love of God! Call the fire department!
The man was trying to establish a "gato", Brazilian slang for illegally tapping into the power grid in order to draw electricity without having to pay. For such a deeply religious woman, her husband should have known not to steal. Tragic, but to be expected when you mess with high-voltage lines without proper training or equipment.

Bonus content: Another man found floating dead in the same town (NOT RELATED TO THE VIDEO ABOVE, relevant article)
ValentΓn Alsina, Argentina
As a result of the storm that broke out in the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area (AMBA), a 14-year-old teenager was hospitalized in a serious condition after being electrocuted while traveling on public roads in the Buenos Aires town of ValentΓn Alsina, he was a Lanus resident.
The incident occurred on Tuesday afternoon at the intersection of Haiti and Membrillar streets, where the minor came into contact with a light pole and suffered an electric shock. The sequence was recorded by a security camera that captured the young man while he was walking through the flooded street and, at the moment he tried to return to the sidewalk, he ended up collapsed on the street while trying to hold on to the metal structure.
According to the testimonies of the neighbors, they realized what happened to the teenager when they heard the scream he gave when he was electrocuted. While several of the adults who were on the block came out to assist him, one of his brothers who was with him was in charge of notifying his mother about what had happened.
βThey hear the scream, they look out and see the boy lying on the floor,β said Romina, a neighbor from the neighborhood who said that her husband was at a neighbor's house on the block when the accident occurred. At the same time, the woman indicated that another of the residents began to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) maneuvers on him when he realized that the minor was not breathing.
In her case, she said that she found out minutes later, because another neighbor went to look for her at her house to ask for help. βWe were doing CPR for 15 minutes with a neighbor until the ambulance arrived,β she noted in a conversation with the TN news program. In the same way, she reported that they had to carefully move him to an area where the water was not so high to be able to revive him.
Regarding the time they spent trying to make him react, Romina assured that the young man βtotally lost consciousness,β and added: βIt cost us a lot, he came back and left, he came back and left.β However, she acknowledged that he was still unconscious when the medical staff prepared to transport him.
According to the information obtained by Noticias Argentinas, the staff of the LanΓΊs 3rd section acted at the scene and notified the SAME. In addition, the spokespersons for the Buenos Aires hospitals with which Infobae contacted confirmed that the minor was admitted to the Evita Hospital in LanΓΊs and that his condition was classified as critical, so his prognosis will remain reserved.
On the other hand, during the early hours of Tuesday, the death of a man was reported in ValentΓn Alsina after neighbors noticed that a body was floating at the intersection of Habana and Coronel Dulce streets. In addition, neighbors complained about the time it took for emergency services to remove the remains, due to the complexity of entering the area due to the extensive flooding in the streets.
As firefighters confirmed earlier to La NaciΓ³n+, the victim had been electrocuted and due to the state of the streets they were not able to approach the place earlier, so the rescue of the body was completed after noon.
According to this just-released article, the boy in question is now dead.
I know it's a repost, but that dude keeps posting shitty crops so I've taken the liberty of posting the original version.

I am not quite sure, but it looks like he parked right underneath live wires.
If you look closely at the wheels you can see they are sparking as well as the man himself (obviously)!
If this is a repost feel free to report it.
