The man who was electrocuted by 132kV lines

While we’re on the subject, can someone explain how this mad lad survived such a powerful jolt of electricity?

True. But 30v ni kdogo. But i get your point. Unless you meant 30KV

Unataka kusema hata wewe ulikua kwa hiyo national school? Are you sure you wonna lie to us?

Did he? Ama ni adrenaline doing their things for a few seconds. Utapata liver, kidney etc ni nyam chom

If he’s still alive hakushika live wire, what probably happened is that he tampered with the wiring, moja ikashika external metal casing ama ground and in the process the thermal energy from the short ikamrusha.

retarded chokosh

while domestic supply of 240v, 13A has never killed anyone

Bonobo there’s a difference btn AC na DC, leo umekuwa brave enough to challenge mjuaji sio? Alafu the 240V supply is never 13A, its usually 5 or 10A ikienda sana.

Sijawahi kuona ukipost. First time for everything.

The amount of cursing in that video! Godamn!

Haikuwa siku yake

meffi wewe ni 13A juu ya cookers

Unless you create a pathway, electricity cannot flow. So when he touches a live wire with one hand, he has shoes on to the ground, which restrict a flow. The shoes are insulated to the ground. But when he puts a second hand to another wire, now there’s a pathway. He immediately gets jolted. Now current can jump like you say by arching but the receiving body has to be a metal. The human body offers massive resistance to electricity, therefore it will take a large kilovolt power line to cause a arc.

Only for cookers na instant showers, the rest Max ni 10A

Electrical hazards do kill many every year. The outlet is 240V, but because of the human body’s massive resistance, current flowing through is maybe 0.5A.

Hehehe

domestic supply rarely kill, in slums here in kenya where illegal connections are allover na hauna ata earth wires watu wangekuwa wameisha.
io ya body resistance nayo ni ukweli na husaidia sana

My goodness, no wonder you support assimio. Very slow

:D:p
Hujaambiwa poa

The reason you will still get electrocuted even if you are wearing rubber shoes is because of capacitance. Your body acts like a capacity and stores charge. The charge gets dissipated from your body via sharp edges into the air.

The only way not to get electrocuted is to touch the naked wire while wearing gloves/insulator. Make sure they are bone dry and not wet.
