Man electrocuted by Prius!

[Reaper]

In an in depth follow up to the tragic news story that was reported last week, I thought it was my duty as a concerned reporter to provide further information and additional updates on this shocking story.

As such, I've talked to the widow of Ebenezer Buckpinscher, representatives of Toyota Motor Corporation, and local law enforcement officials, in an effort to determine the circumstances that led to his untimely death and also whether or not any additional safety measures will be implemented by Toyota.

Investigators have determined that Eb apparently had been trying to repair his stranded car. The driver's side door and rear hatch were open and there was evidence the battery pack had been tampered with. Apparently, frustrated that he was unable to diagnose or fix the problem, he decided to urinate on his car instead. Due to it being a rainy, damp night, Eb was very well grounded and received the full 270 volt/80 amp discharge of the battery pack through his urine stream.

being a sceptic i cant see how this happen, considering that to get zapped by a automotive battery you need to provide continuity between the positive and negative poles,

and because vehicles are earth returned through the body that means any stray power as such is returned to the battery, unless he was holding the positive lead in one hand and pissing on the negative i cant really see this happening

[Garth]

not possible
unless the guy piss's like a race horse with a complete unbroken stream of pee, he wont receive a shock threw his doodle

also if he pee's on the car, it's insulated, he is earthed, difference in potential from him to the car to earth back to him back to the car is 0v.

rain is not a good conductor.

do we need to go on. but yeah, thats for the people who think it's real. should be in the jokes section.

[Stressball]

I'm going to go on the assumption that this isn't supposed to be taken seriously.Dodgy situation as Garth said, cheap energy for a guy with a name like 'ebenezer buckpinscher' (scrooge, anyone?) etc

[illusionalvr]

imagine if that actually happened.

[mulligan-can]

It was clearly a joke. LoL..... Yeah nah that was actually quite funny, was expecting a real story when I clicked it though. Was wondering just how on earth someone could manage to pull that off.
