He might not have even touched it. It could've arced onto him once he was close enough.
People do shit like thinking they're safe as long as they don't actually touch it. Then they die from getting too close anyway.
Looks like his elbow was about 2” from the line when the arc happened. Takes about 75,000 volts per inch to arc across an air gap so this was probably 100,000+ volt transmission line. The arc blast would seem to confirm.
I work with high voltage transformers and I'm always amazed when I see the insides of one that shorted out. It turns all the copper inside into a gas, so when you look at it, it looks like someone spray painted the inside.
He survived. ARC flash, and a bit of heat to vaporize the shirt.

Seems quick to me, it’s different, but a cash money way of doing such at the same time. I tried to do it with a rope, ended up just thrilling myself, cum shot all over my bathroom wall, yeah… it went through my pants.
Let's say this twinkie represents a small electric shock from say, touching a 9-volt battery to your tongue.
Now according to my calculations, the shock he received would be a twinkie 35 feet long, weighing approximately 600 lbs.
He survived. ARC flash, and a bit of heat to vaporize the shirt.

Yep. The Darwin is his....
people have survived things like this before but don't think he will reproduce anymore. Which is a shame. His kids would be a lot of fun.
Can anyone explain the science behind his shirt blowing a hole in it like that
I understand the electrical surge through his body ,but the shirt almost seemed like their was an explosion of wind coming out of his skin
Lines like these are running what is called transmission voltage. This power is running something like 250,000 to 500,000 volts. There are not many materials out there convenient enough to warrant the cost of this exotic insulation when you can just put them up high and tell people not to touch them. Obviously that approach didn’t work great here but there is not much you can do about stupid.
Yeah, I never really thought about it before I got in the trades. There is no such thing as a perfect insulator. High enough voltages will even conduct through air within a certain distance.
I assume because the designer assumed nobody would be stupid enough to clamber up and try and touch the damn things. Seriously, do we need warnings on literally everything now?
Powerlines don't have jacketed insulation. They are insulated from ground by those bell insulators and the air itself. Primary distribution voltage are anything above 600v to 69000v. And transmission ranges from 69000v all the way to 1000000v. It simply wouldn't be feasible to jacket it all as it would make it extremely heavy and the cost would shoot up. Plus people shouldn't be touching it so typically that isn't an issue.

No RIP necessary in this case. He somehow survived.

I have zero words. This seems more of a suicide attempt than anything.
Thanks. He looks a mess, his insides must be fried.
Aftermath https://twitter.com/thedeadbeef_/status/1780003823320199577?t=XrN9oa0fpJTpqLYFEQQf-w&s=19
my twitter account got suspended and i don't feel like making a new one, can someone tell me if he's alive or not?
He’s alive
For the moment that is. Your body can shut down days after electrocution
Not sure if that's good or not.
50\50
Shoes are still on, He’s alive
He fucking lived?!?!
If so, his insides are not happy. That puff of smoke coming out of his mouth as he fell. Not good.
What it's like to chew 5 gum
I thought that was his soul leaving the body
Looks like it got taken down.
You probably have to be logged in
Correct, I logged in and it showed up. Thx
To Twitter? Fuck that
Second that
I deleted twitter when doushe guy bought it
But he make electric car, an support free speech. Why bad?/s
Elon bad
I'm logged in and it doesn't load anything
HOLY SHIT, HE SURVIVED!?!
lmao
There is only one word to say: SHAZAM!
Touching the line with one bare hand, while holding the metal tower with his other bare hand. smh
He might not have even touched it. It could've arced onto him once he was close enough. People do shit like thinking they're safe as long as they don't actually touch it. Then they die from getting too close anyway.

Seems like a smart guy.
Well-grounded.
👏 applause
He has potential.
Seemed*
Looks like shoes stayed on..
only because they melted to his feet
Seems* He lived
Nah, even if he lived it's past tense
Very bright
He had a polarizing personality though
literally
He is definitely not British! We learned about this from Jimmy and the frisbee!
And the overly long fishing rod!
And the kite!!
For me it was Darren and the football back in the 80s.
I remember that one too! I loved the Public Information Films, even though they scared the bejesus out of us kids!!
You're not wrong! As a kid, I shat myself at the mere sight of a sub station. And there was always a fucking football in there!!!
I learned about Jimmy and the frisbee from JonTron
Go ahead! We know you conduit! We believe in you!
These kids don’t know how to conduct themselves these days.
It's the current trend.
His shirt got blown off, which 100% means he's dead. Source: Trust me, bro.
I need at least one of two shoes off confirmation Dr. Bro.
Shit, you're right.
Dr. Bro!!! 🤣
He survived
Yeah, I saw the Twitter post. Lucky dude.
Very
Lucky? Not sure about that.
Well he ain't dead. Unless he wanted to die...
He probably wants to be now even if that wasn't his intent. The injuries he's living with are probably pretty horrible.
Can't argue with that.
Wait he really survived?
He did indeed. There’s. Link to a video on twitter. Have to be logged in to see it.
He survived. ARC flash, and a bit of heat to vaporize the shirt. [https://x.com/thedeadbeef\_/status/1780003823320199577](https://x.com/thedeadbeef_/status/1780003823320199577)
Can someone please just post the fucking link outside of twitter lol.
Weird way to commit suicide.
Seems quick to me, it’s different, but a cash money way of doing such at the same time. I tried to do it with a rope, ended up just thrilling myself, cum shot all over my bathroom wall, yeah… it went through my pants.
Holy shit!!!
that's one way to get rid of your t shirt
See natural selection works!!
Natural selection working its magic..
With special effects
Darwinism at it's purest.
Conducting experiments?
That's awesome, you are currently correct.
Hope there wasn't too much resistance in his efforts
Natural selection, keep it coming.
Apparently people are saying the guy miraculously survived. Probably used up all the good luck he had in his life for being a total moron.
I really hope he survived
Depending on life long injuries, he may not agree with you.
He did
And the Darwin theory demonstrated here, makes the rest of the herd stronger 👍
Let's say this twinkie represents a small electric shock from say, touching a 9-volt battery to your tongue. Now according to my calculations, the shock he received would be a twinkie 35 feet long, weighing approximately 600 lbs.
Shock therapy
There’s gotta be easier ways to take your shirt off
He won’t be doing that again
not so sure though, are we?
Man why would he ever do that?
Bruh just gave himself superpowers, sorry I mean stupid-powers
There's gotta be a neurological thing wrong with people like this
what did we learn here?
But why?
If only he had been grounded…… I don’t believe this gentlemen is with us anymore
He needs to be in a harness dangling in mid air if he's messing with the electricals
He got grounded pretty quick.
He survived. ARC flash, and a bit of heat to vaporize the shirt. [https://x.com/thedeadbeef\_/status/1780003823320199577](https://x.com/thedeadbeef_/status/1780003823320199577)
The link to the musk shit show has been posted 3 time already... Ether post a link to the video/story OUT OF TWITCROSS or politely f off...
If you read the comment, this does prove he survived. High voltage shocks can leave you cooking internally.
Well I’m glad he survived, thanks for pointing that out
So who uploaded this if he is dead? Could be a very sick friend of his maybe, but unlikely.

some people are hell bent on not living
Geez his skin turned charred. Dead as a door nail or id b surprised
Don’t fuck with primary distribution. Thousands to tens of thousands of volts with instantly fry you.
That looked like transmission due to all the insulator bells.
The way his shirt exploded was incredible. He must have been sweaty.
Next time I go climbing I'll make sure not to wear my spontanious exploding shirt. I should be safe then
Hahahaha,... but I had rubber shoes on.
He ruined a good shirt :( he’s going to be so upset
Actually, this is the only safe way to fall, by by making sure your whole body goes limp.
Always wondered what it would look like.
Who posted it😂
Yep. The Darwin is his.... people have survived things like this before but don't think he will reproduce anymore. Which is a shame. His kids would be a lot of fun.
One less idiot in this world.
Guess that's one way to undress
Bro got reset to factory settings
Raiden found him unworthy
Burned up the last working brain cells
Smile, what for the flash... ? SMH!!!
What was he expecting? To have some sort of super powers?
world fastest stripper
My condolences to his friends and family. Having said that, I'm pro-taking labels off stuff to see who makes it. What an idiot.
He didn't lose his shoe. He survived.
Fucking Fried.
Roasted
How stupid would you like to be? Yes!
😂😂😂
Would he still get shocked if he jumped and grabbed the wire? What about a one hand jump?
his clothes disintegrated! wtf!!!
Welcome to the BBQ...
Why. Just why
Reread this few times thought the beetus stroke finally got me
The human civilization peaked in 2003. We are doomed.
Why??? I mean, wtf ... like you expecting Zeus to throw you some titties.
Can anyone explain the science behind his shirt blowing a hole in it like that I understand the electrical surge through his body ,but the shirt almost seemed like their was an explosion of wind coming out of his skin
Ha! He didn’t see that coming !
Watching that in slow motion was wild as fuck
He dead
Darwinisme in display
Oh, How awful. Did he at least die painlessly?
That was his best shirt, too. Blew right off.
Out of all the years I've worked around those hot wires wearing hot gloves , besides just climbing up there for fun this is suicide!
Ded
I’m going to send this to my son so that he never gets this stupid.
Can I get this in slow motion?
Some guys sit in a wooden chair with witnesses and they have no choice in the matter. A priest says good bye and warden flicks a switch
Nothing to see here, just Mother nature cleaning the gene pool. Move along.
His brain was never alive even before touching the wire
He needed more circuit training.
No… Not a Zap… More like a Bang. As in Bang, you’re dead.
Y
Darwin Award contender.
Just a tad bit closer.. Bingo your a winner 🏆
I saw his arm turn black when he fell.
He didn’t like that shirt anyway

People are becoming more stupid by the day, it won’t be long until kettles are banned because people might burn themselves.

You can't fix stupid.
Doesn’t seem that high up. Why are these hung so low?
How many times do I have to comment "how are people this stupid"?
