India (where else). Work was underway to install a utility pole on the bypass road. A worker was electrocuted when electricity suddenly began to flow, resulting in the death of the 32-year-old worker.

Another worker narrowly escaped electrocution. The deceased worker has been identified as Sheikh A.P.D.

A case has been registered at the town police station against the Electricity Board's assistant engineer, the concerned lineman, the electrical contractor and his supervisor.

According to reports, the contractor was assigned the task of installing the electricity pole. Four laborers were working on the project on Sunday. The contractor's supervisor had asked for a permit by 4 p.m. While the work was underway, electricity suddenly began flowing around 1 p.m.

he victim, who was working there, received a severe electric shock and fell to his death. The incident caused widespread panic in the area.

Whenever anything gets done in India, someone has to die

I think I’m beginning to understand

Pretty sneaky power line hiding in the tree like it was. It was just lying in wait for the right person to come along and play touch me.

You seem to have forgotten to thank my post. It’s up above yours. Maybe you were in a hurry and didn’t have time or just forgot. No worries. Whenever you’re ready. Your hair looks nice btw

I read some months ago they deployed 12 nuclear warheads onto its active strategic systems during peacetime and the remaining 178 warheads are maintained in secure, centralized storage facilities, ready for assembly if a major crisis arises.

India possesses a fully operational nuclear triad, meaning it can launch nuclear strikes from land-based ballistic missiles, military aircraft and nuclear-powered submarines.

Indian military pledges never to use nuclear weapons first in a conflict, reserving them purely as a retaliatory deterrent against an initial nuclear attack by an adversary.

India achieved a massive milestone by testing its first Multiple Independently Targetable Re-entry Vehicle technology on an advanced Agni-V missile. This technology allows a single missile to carry multiple dummy warheads and drop them on entirely separate targets thousands of kilometers apart.

Question for the panel:
Is the unfortunate ”zapp-ee” aware of what is happening upon that initial contact or is it instant lights-out?
Any theories? Has anyone survived one of these?
Asking for me.

Nothing like dying with an electrified pole between your legs...
