Shocking news for the day.
:sneaky:

Sorry for her, but this is the "ultimate" selfie. :(

photoshopping your selfie is also much safer

Ohm my, so many puns it hertz.

Seriously though, don't people realize that electric trains are electric and that the electric wire has to have enough electricity in it to move the entire train? It ain't a tiny little 12 volt system there. Incidents like these seem to happen fairly often.

I think it's more that they don't have any conception of how far 27kv will arc. She didn't touch any wires, she didn't have to.

She had a lot of potential, I guess resistance is futile.

That's how the current generation is, no impedance to doing dumb things. How do you rectify this capacitance for self-destructive stupidity? We need to impart a solid grounding in responsible conductance.

Well, a sad inductance into the Darwin Awards.
