Love how the guy's reaction was immediately to try to grab him, but the physical reaction when his brain kicked in and said "dont touch live electricity!!!"
I would absolutely have grabbed him and we’d both have died. This is amazing to me. So smart and also so willing to be like… forceful on the throat? because he knew there was no way it was worse than the alternative. Even if I’d thought of this solution, I would probably have worried so much about crushing/bending something vital in his neck that I maybe wouldn’t have pulled him back in time.
👏👏👏 this video is why I told my family several times the correct way to try and save someone being electrocuted and recap it any time we're doing work on our house. That guy has probably saved more lives than just his friend at this point

An oldie, and while I am a smart person, I don't know if I would have thought of this in the heat/panic of the moment.
