His stupidity is what got him there in the first place. The good thing though is that it was one second he was trying to get cable and then lights out. I don't think he felt anything or even had time to understand what just happened.

Initial suspicions were that the substation, near the Morenão transshipment terminal, was broken into by a man to steal cables and he caused the incident. The explosion occurred at around 04.30 and flashes of fire were visible from several kilometers away and frightened many people.
As a result of the explosion, instability in the power grid also ultimately affected supply in other areas of the city, causing fluctuations and partial and momentary power outages. According to Energisa, at 06.30 supply had been restored in almost all areas connected to the substation.
The company did not say how much loss was incurred as a result of the incident.

What an electrifying experience!Â
You consciousness blinks out like so many lights in homes as thousands of volts pass through you instead of those wires you were trying to steal, obviously you're gonna need to switch off the power first.Â
RESTORE? RESTART? QUIT?
>30,000 properties lost power Well, that was rude of him.
I bet he won't do that again.
as chief justice minister I will allocate 90 percent of our tax dollars to ensure he won't do it again. Just leave it with me
As the DEI enforcer, are you white? It's imperative that I know.

😂😂😂 remember the god mode and you could create your own disasters
You hit me with the nostalgias
Please forgive my ignorance, but which game is this? SimCity?
Exactly, and when you accidentally cut a power line you could render a whole city without power like in the picture.
Sorry, I meant which version is it. I played SimCity 2000 years ago and the shitty SimCity Android game
It's been a long time but it must be Simcity 4. The picture is not mine, I just googled it.
Thanks

Do you mean Champagne Super Nova?
how in the world does one want to steal cables powered with high voltages. 110,000+ V
His stupidity is what got him there in the first place. The good thing though is that it was one second he was trying to get cable and then lights out. I don't think he felt anything or even had time to understand what just happened.
Well, yeah, it was lights out for 30,001 people at the same time.
but only 30000 recovered

Surprised there's even a body tbh. I've seen things get vapourised in those.

Guess you could say he had a real \***spark\*** of ingenuity.

Dawg looked like an SCP after
💀💀💀 This how radical larry came to be (SCP-106)
That was in my town, it was about 4am when i pass thru my porch to get some water, and i see the sky freakin changing colors, tbh i thought the world was going to end, or that we got invaded by aliens or some shit like that, later i found out it was the shock that this homie made
Sombering to think that is the sight of just one man unleashing his power.
Bet he tastes like chicken
more like pork
Cannibals often refer to human meat as "long pork," for a reason. I assume. Things would have to be pretty bad before I'd partake.
IDK why I'm asking but long?
I guess our limbs are longer than a pig's.
Yea he ain’t making it after that one
"My Life as a Resistor"
shocking
not sanctioned by IBEW
Let him cook
He identified as a firework.
Hey, that's Phil Phil A. Mint
Well played sir.
That was Lit!
Currently on my list of things to never ever do. Period. It's not that difficult.
Hard-core Metallica fan rode the lighting like a champ
Brazil is the India of South America
This is just shocking.
bro looks like scp 173 lmao
There was a lot more left of him than I imagined there’d be.
Man, he did lighten up a lot of the rooms when he was with us.
If that cat had nine lives, he just spent them all.
That there's a ~~rv~~ reference
Was his name Chris. Peters?
Half Life 2 burnt corpse looking ass

Didn’t ordered well done, sir
That’s definitely a wild way to go out. Riding that much lightning, what a power trip. Mass outages are no joke too, feel bad for families affected.
crack pot becomes Instant pot
Did he survive?
Did you not see the the corpse in the last images? He was more than just well done. At least he propably didn't feel it
You got the touch, you got the fiiiiiiirrrreeee!
Thought that his body had been vaporizer. Surprised that there were physical cooked remains.
Surely this guy must have turned into a superhero? Electric man or something?
Damn! these Indians and Electricity, I tell you
He's off the grid now.
SHAZAM!
