The weather this morning reminds me of a ‘real-life story that landed you in hospital’ that was told on Nick Ferrari (LBC radio presenter)’s show a while back:
A man and his father were working an allotment. The son had got mud caked thickly in the tread of his right boot making work uncomfortable, so looked about for something to lean against while he shook the mud off. There was an electricity pylon close by, so he leaned against it, lifted his right foot and began shaking the mud off. His father turned around and seeing his son clearly in the spasms of electrocution beat him off the pylon with a spade.
