An intoxicated man hangs from high-tension cables.

Who can predict anyone's behavior following intoxication?

Recently a drunk individual in China decided to dangle from high-tension wires which were 30 feet above ground.

After climbing the pole, the unidentified man moved across the cables while a firefighter urged him to get down. The power had to be temporarily shut off to avoid electrocution.

After about 15 minutes of hanging and moving across the wires, his grip loosened and he fell to a lower set of cables before plummeting to the ground.

Fortunately fire authorities had set up a net-like contraption to reduce the impact and reportedly, he was uninjured.

In 2011, a man in Connecticut was injured after he got stuck in electrical wires hanging over train tracks. The cables rested approximately 15 feet above the ground.

The male survived , but he encountered a leg burn. He was taken to the hospital for treatment. No one knew why he was on the wires.

Have you ever found yourself in such strange situations?
