INDIA DIY enthusiast lost his life during repair work on the roof of a family house. He came into contact with high-voltage electrical cables. The electric current immediately knocked him unconscious, after which he fell onto the wires and remained hanging on them, while electricity continued to pass through his body. A co-worker tried to save him and move him to safety using a piece of cloth. However, all attempts were in vain.
In similar cases, always remember the first and most basic rule of first aid: Do not help if you endanger your own life or health. Do not repeat the mistake of his co-worker, and in the case of electricity, never approach the victim. A better idea is to call the emergency line of the energy company, the police, or the fire department.
