How Electrocution Almost Sent This Man To An Early Grave In Lagos. by scionofurhobo(m): 7:10pm On Mar 24, 2018
Talk about being in the wrong place at the wrong time...

This man in the pictures below died and came back to life this morning, when after he parked his car in a car wash, decided to urinate in a nearby gutter, and as he stood to answer nature's call, was hit by the electric cable above him that snapped. Incidentally, the place was close to a transformer.

The wire connected to the pole hit him on his right arm and the shock threw him off his feet and he fell down flat on his back. Residents started running helter skelter away from scene of the accident.

But some brave guys ran to the rescue. When they held him, he was not breathing. His jacket arm was burnt on the right hand, under his feet were burnt, despite he wore a canvas. One of the guys suggested that they should start pounding him on his chest and back. This they did for several minutes, until he started breathing again.

By now, people who had started gathering, went into shouts of jubilation and giving thanks to God: "Oluwa Eshe o", "Hay, thank you God", "Oga, go give thanksgiving for your church, God too like you", "maybe im time neva reach", etc. were the comments that rent the air.

He was carried to a side of the carwash, where he began to regain his consciousness. Several moments later, he could stand. He was given tin milk. Most vehicles and public buses that were stopped to help convey him to an hospital, were reluctant to stop. Eventually, he was driven by a good samaritan, who took him in his vehicle to the hospital.

Thank God for this Beggar, who sat directly under the wire but "escaped" unhurt ... You can notice the wire behind him.
