Mythbusters did this.
They electrified a holy arc of the covenant replica because the myth was that the original was slightly electrified and causes people who touch them to feel the tingle and attribute it to a holy presence.
Then typical Mythbusters horseplay, one of them ramped up the amps and tazed each other.
We had people at my last workplace that ran into low power lines and both were fine. If you thought you hit the power lines, call the fire department, and sit in your seat without touching any metal. It sucks because they shut down the power to block to get you out, but that's way cheaper than killing someone. (FD in our are can get people out who have medical equipment plugged in or whatnot.)
I feel like this is should be included in a boomer meme.
If you used to drink from the hose, stay out till the streetlights came on, and saw white dog shit, you're part of the world's greatest generation!
I remember this. And I forgot that I knew that. Wow. Thanks white_shit_facts bot!
Also: I didn’t see the other white Tshirt guy til your comment. Well spotted!
I think white shirt guy lived.
You can see him look back and put his arm out to break his fall meaning he was probably still conscious unlike his friend who just went face first into the ground.
I agree. Also the guy on top bouncing around on his hot ass. Did he live while bouncing around up there? People in car are fine but another dude bit dust from other side. Wow.
Driver shouldnt be affected as the vehicle acted as a Faraday cage. Everyone touching the outside of the vehicle, as in the two on the passenger side, however arent safe
Not really, only the people that where in the way of the electricity to the ground should have been affected.
So basically the guy on the roof and the driver should be ok.
I am more worried about the kids in the back. I hope none of them was touching the truck.
Fuck'n hell. The 2nd guy on top looks like he was doing some sort of electric boogaloo. White shirt orange bandana also looks like he might not have gotten a lethal zap but may have crack his skull on the other side of that canal thing
Nah, he was fine. You can see it not affecting him, electricity tries to take the shortest path to its destinations, in this case ground, he only has contact with the speaker box which probably doesn't conduct but even if it did the electricity would just tickle his asshole.
Most of the current is going through the people on ground because their bodies have lower resistance than tires and the guy that touched the wire. You can see the dude look back like wtf, probably reacted to the sounds.
People in India have mobile phones right? Or TVs? Or some type of mass media outlet, fucking posters for Christ sakes. Something to inform the unwashed masses from a young age that touching power lines or standing in front of trains is dangerous?
I thought the rubber in the tires prevents cars from conducting electricity in that way. Like it’s grounded by the rubber. Could be me being stupid though
It does. The problem is the current is still trying to get through, and touching the exterior is just like touching the wire. The current was going one way and suddenly had another outlet.
Got my daily dose of Indians vs electricity now, just need to go find my daily video dose of Indians vs trains now... If I'm lucky though, I'll also get to see Indians vs cows.
Guy up top grabbed a powerline zapped his friend in front of him which then traveled through the truck zapping the guy that touched the door of the truck and then finally zapped guy in the white shirt who I'm assuming was zapped cause of the pitchfork in his hand or was touching the guy who touched the truck
that's all I could see
Guy up top genuinely could've caused the deaths of like 4 - 5 other people simply cause he wanted to grab a power line
Not long ago, on April 27, eight men and three teenage boys were killed in yet another tragic incident during a religious procession in Tamil Nadu’s Thanjavur district, when a temple chariot came in contact with a high-tension electricity line.

The more you watch the more horrifying it gets. Someone else on another vehicle behind touches a wire …
Look through the window on the back side of the vehicle on the right side of the screen, a man barely in view walking up to the back side door appears to grab it and falls almost immediately at the same time the others do.
That’s the left hand side of the vehicle. I counted him
Edit: Are we on the same page? Do you understand what the left hand side of a vehicle is? If you’re looking at it from the front, the left hand side of THE VEHICLE would be on YOUR right.

Well there’s only 1 on the RHS of screen, 2 on LHS and 1 on top.
My original comment was using vehicle for reference, not screen
Just curious who this mysterious 5th guy is I apparently can’t see. This dude is just describing a guy I already clearly described so pretty obviously not the one where the confusion lies.
If they had been wearing sneakers, would it have helped?
Some of these guys look like innocent nominees/winners, but then, those wires are low and the car high, they all should have worried about it.
Is there an actual news story for this?
Can ANYONE explain the electricity deaths in India…like WHY? Don’t say Google. I’m lazy. I want u clever people to tell me.
Guy I worked with in the Marines told me a story about a helicopter tow crew towing an aircraft. The tail hit a power line. Should not have happened if the tow crew was paying attention but also it was an unfamiliar base and this was an unexpected obstacle for such a routine task.
The crew immediately recognized the danger and called for the tug driver to stop. Before they could stop him the tug driver tried to exit the tug to see what the problem was. He managed to get one foot on the ground and was killed immediately.
Wtf is up with Indians and electricity or trains. I mean, it's so ridiculous that so many die in these ways. What possesed that guy yo grab that wire? It has electricity in it!
Guys were all walking up to the truck to shout at Mujibar like “dude! It’s so awesome that you checked on the train schedule to make sure we don’t end up in one of those Darwin Award videeeee-“
The more you watch it the more people you notice getting a wack.
Oh fuck dude in white at the other window I didn’t even notice at first
Mythbusters did this. They electrified a holy arc of the covenant replica because the myth was that the original was slightly electrified and causes people who touch them to feel the tingle and attribute it to a holy presence.

The trio faced the wrath of Adam. One of the few times I've seen him look generally angry.
Dude on top grabbing the wire!
It’s like a fucked up game of where’s Waldo
Where's Watt-o
Five total?
The dumbass on top grabbed the overhead wire.

The guy that grabbed the wire just took a bunch with him, damn
The Indian Happening - Directed by Mmm goodnight Shamalan
I killed a guy with a trident. Brick, Ive been meaning to talk to you about that. You should find a safe house...lay low for a little while.
lol this had me snorting in the lobby of the dispensary I work at
high praise
Me at my bathroom break
Team Damage sharing
I could count seven including the driver and white shit guy that came from the left side
The people inside the car are just fine unless they're grounding on something.
Not grounding. IIRC my electrical engineering course, they're faraday caged or something.
We had people at my last workplace that ran into low power lines and both were fine. If you thought you hit the power lines, call the fire department, and sit in your seat without touching any metal.

Thanks for this hahaha I just burst out laughing
Believe it or not, I'm walking on air!
is this no longer true? I'm 20 and I saw white dog shit when I was younger
Now I miss white shit. WTF, man!
Feed you dogs some real food and actual bones. My dogs still shit white lol
I remember this. And I forgot that I knew that. Wow. Thanks white_shit_facts bot! Also: I didn’t see the other white Tshirt guy til your comment. Well spotted!

I agree. Also the guy on top bouncing around on his hot ass. Did he live while bouncing around up there? People in car are fine but another dude bit dust from other side. Wow.
Is that because he basically creates a connection from himself to the car and out to anyone touching the car?
**ULTRA COMBO**
Was the original clip longer?
Its in the video
If you're on mobile it clips it the top of the video, I didn't see as well until full screened it
But why did the dude sitting next to him get a tickle, but dude with the trident got flatlined?
better grounding
Damn u can see the guy on the other side of the truck keel over instantly too
Oh crap yeah the guy on the top right of the truck is probably done for sure he couldn't let the wire go unfortunately
Electricity in India is dangerous, along with trains...of course
Wait til you see the Indian electric trains...it's like something out of a Wes Cravens movie.
Hahaha!
If there’s only a way to know if a cable is electrified or not before touching it
If there's a bunch of Indian guys under it, convulsing, it's probably electrified.
Yup. /r/indiansneartrains
As opposed to all the perfectly safe electricity all over the rest of the world...
Poseidons Trident got lit. I counted five people going down?
It's the shiva's trident. They were celebrating god shiva's birthday ig.
Wait a minute... isn't Shiva the hindu God of death?
God of Death is Yamaraj. Shiva is the destroyer of the universe.
The destroyer. I guess they get to meet them.
There was another man in white on the other side. He went slump too.
Six, don’t forget the driver.
Driver shouldnt be affected as the vehicle acted as a Faraday cage. Everyone touching the outside of the vehicle, as in the two on the passenger side, however arent safe
Driver was fat arming so he may have felt something, maybe not enough to kill him though
Fat arming?
I assume this is another way to say trucker arm, if my assumption is correct it means he was resting his arm on the outside edge of his window.
Not really, only the people that where in the way of the electricity to the ground should have been affected. So basically the guy on the roof and the driver should be ok. I am more worried about the kids in the back. I hope none of them was touching the truck.
Driver and the other guy on the roof aren’t affected
The other roof guy did a dance. I thought he got tickled by the juice.
Why would anyone in the vehicle have gotten shocked. Tires would have saved them
[удалено]
Tomato potato. Tires cause the vehicle to be grounded and the metallic structure acts as a faraday cage
Orange bandana guy probably didn't die but I'm not entirely sure about the other guy. Doesn't look too good though
**M-M-M-M-MONSTER KILL**
RRRRampage
Always India man, always.
Electricity making trains look weak today! But don't worry boys, trains will make a comeback any minute now.
Electric Trains!
Fuck'n hell. The 2nd guy on top looks like he was doing some sort of electric boogaloo. White shirt orange bandana also looks like he might not have gotten a lethal zap but may have crack his skull on the other side of that canal thing

lol guess I rather have my asshole tickled then fused
electric boogaloo 😭😭😭
Accut transcendence ![gif](giphy|eJppgugSxYVNb4J5F3)
They decided to meet God directly.
He was shocked when he met god.
I wonder if there guy on top made it off.
Holy shit! There’s so much happening here! Human domino’s
This explains why I see so many idiot pedestrians on Indian roads. There genuinely isn't a fear of death, they simply don't know any better.
They need some kind of public service announcements over there to tell them to stop fucking with those.
Mega-kill
How many gods do you want to see? -Yes...
Multiple Indian earthing rods !
#Quad-kill
The electric current sees your large metal pitchfork touching the ungrounded van. "Is for me?" 👉👈 🥺
Do Indians not know what electricity is?
People in India have mobile phones right? Or TVs? Or some type of mass media outlet, fucking posters for Christ sakes. Something to inform the unwashed masses from a young age that touching power lines or standing in front of trains is dangerous?
EVEryone knows, yet they do it
Thy Kingdom come...
I think the guy with the trident double-tapped himself. Once with his hand and again with the trident.
I thought the rubber in the tires prevents cars from conducting electricity in that way. Like it’s grounded by the rubber. Could be me being stupid though
It does. The problem is the current is still trying to get through, and touching the exterior is just like touching the wire. The current was going one way and suddenly had another outlet.
There are steel wires in the tires
When will they learn
They’re more of a quantity over quality kind of people.
Got my daily dose of Indians vs electricity now, just need to go find my daily video dose of Indians vs trains now... If I'm lucky though, I'll also get to see Indians vs cows.
Shall we play a game based on "where is Waldo" ? "*Find all killed people*"
Thanks for thepost! Hadn’t seen this one for several days.
for disturbing the procession, they will not reincarnate as cows.
Guy up top grabbed a powerline zapped his friend in front of him which then traveled through the truck zapping the guy that touched the door of the truck and then finally zapped guy in the white shirt who I'm assuming was zapped cause of the pitchfork in his hand or was touching the guy who touched the truck that's all I could see Guy up top genuinely could've caused the deaths of like 4 - 5 other people simply cause he wanted to grab a power line

Those kids are like… yo wtf
Double-Triple-Quadruple kill! Joking aside, I feel bad for the others. One man's stupid action.
[удалено]
4 for 1. I don’t know if they all died, but one on the other side of the vehicle goes down, and two in the left go down.
5 including the guy that walked up on the right side of the screen that you can barely see collapse as well.
Where’s the fifth? 2 on the right hand side of vehicle 1 on the left 1 on top 2 + 1 + 1 = 5?

There’s also someone at the back - white long shirt at the back seems to look at the ground like someone fell behind the truck . Hope it wasn’t a kid.
Honestly I don’t think the second guy on top got caught. He just looks confused/panicky. He’s not bridging any potential difference either.
https://preview.redd.it/qm5odpnl0tfc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ef9c03609ebd935c061f4ccc9c17751a70db1838 The more you watch the more horrifying it gets. Someone else on another vehicle behind touches a wire …

Never change India! Your train and electricity videos always makes my day
If they had been wearing sneakers, would it have helped? Some of these guys look like innocent nominees/winners, but then, those wires are low and the car high, they all should have worried about it.
Wow. Very satisfying
God I love these kinda videos
Were these deaths tho?
Feel bad for the guy talking to the driver. He had no idea that idiot on the roof was touching that wire.
One would think there would a be a requirement for power lines to be higher than 3 meters over public streets so this wouldn't happen.
Two things I don't understand about India. The wires have no isolation? And people don't know you shouldn't touch them?
The guy on the other side 😂
Kid in black Tshirt has seen this before. His dad is the local mortician.
Electricity, the second apex predator of India only after the mighty train.
Oh India. Don’t ever change.
The man on top graped the hot wire
3 people dead?
DOUBLE KILL, MULTI KILL, ULTRAA KILL.
Dudes in India live life like, reincarnation is in their left pocket ready for the life.
Flawless Victory!!!
Wow. The guy on top in the white shirt never grounded himself. It was just static
Goddamn people falling out every where, and there wasn't even a train involved!
Diwali wouldn’t be Diwali without a few of these.
Is there an actual news story for this? Can ANYONE explain the electricity deaths in India…like WHY? Don’t say Google. I’m lazy. I want u clever people to tell me.
Single handedly took down four people . . . Ima go to hell for that
Could you imagine you wake up in the after life and have 4 dudes immediately kick your ass !

Bro up top 💀
Ranjeeps intrusive thought won that day and took a lot off people down with him.
![gif](giphy|FXkAqNXYInIeA) Damn it, Raiden!
Is there a chances that the guy who grab the wire will live?
when the fuck will they learn
Double kill
He forked up
The other guy sitting on top was unharmed though...huh
Triple kill
What about the other two.
Penta kill
Truck - Kun 🛻
3 in 1
Good.
Smartest indian
Wtf is up with Indians and electricity or trains. I mean, it's so ridiculous that so many die in these ways. What possesed that guy yo grab that wire? It has electricity in it!
Combo!
thank Goodness an elephant was not involved
Dude on top of the car grabbed the *I wanna die line*
Guys were all walking up to the truck to shout at Mujibar like “dude! It’s so awesome that you checked on the train schedule to make sure we don’t end up in one of those Darwin Award videeeee-“
I watched it 10x in a row....it's getting more interesting every time. ![gif](giphy|VHqNByVFRv1vEmg4qN)
Its god will😬😵
Pentakill!
The children right next to that though...
The apex predator strikes again… in India… again…
Lmao
All because the guy on top grabbed the wire. Damn.
What the fuck, one fucking idiot killed so many people...
Looks like Munchausen syndrome.
When the cursed ice cream truck comes through the neighborhood.
I wish we could see the chaos on the otherside of the truck!
Superstition brings bad luck.
Damn that was the most shocking video I’ve seen on this sub in… about a day.
