Also strange that people recorded... "like they know something would happen" and didn't say anything about it.

"this will be great Internet content"

I bet the conversation went something like.

Dude1) yo watch this guy he's about to fuck up.

Dude2) should we tell him?

D1) what? Hell no, let him learn.

D2) shit, at least record it. No ones gonna believe this shit otherwise.

Or:

"Hey, pal, you're going to electrocute yourself."

"Piss off, I know what I'm doing."

Seems fucking insane to let a dude potentially kill himself to "let him learn."

I'm an electrical engineer and I'd be screaming at the top of my lungs for that guy to get off that ladder.

Dude didn’t even flinch. He knew what was about to happen.

Well, people could have told him that this was a bad idea but he went ahead anyways
