Re: Consequences & Punishment (was: 'Graffiti Teen' Hit By Subway Train)

All shoes are live. And you can touch any one of them without getting hurt IF YOU ARE NOT GROUNDED.

OK, this dude was standing on the ground, but he really was not grounded, was he? His shoes probably had rubber soles, the concrete wall does not conduct much electricity, Maybe he was not standing in a puddle, or holding on to something metal. Contact was brief and broken when the train moved away.

And how do you know that there was not electrical damage inside of his body? Wounds like this are not obvious until organs stop working or something.

Even if he was standing in a puddle, then maybe the exit wound from the electrical strike was on the foot that is now gone. In other words, the electricity entered at his shin and went out through the bottom of his foot. Maybe that *IS* the reason why he lost his foot.

There are reasons why they do not want idiots walking around on the railroad tracks.
