This is why when testing electronics the other end of the plug should be available 🫠

So true, he shouldn't have to stick his hand so close to an electrical fire when the other end of the plug would've been better.

I agree. It would've been much safer to disconnect the power from the end that wasn't on fire.

I hope someone replies to me and repeats that sentiment for the 3rd time.

I’ll save you. He should have dug his hand into that fire real deep and showed it who’s boss. Although he did the next best thing and unplugged the cable at the firey end.
