I don't read the newspapers here. For two reasons: firstly I don't find them very engaging and secondly, the reports of shootings, stabbings and other violence is rather unsettling.
However, I was in Manila at the weekend and there was a fee newspaper provided by the hotel, which had this article in it.
Points to note:
- Just look at that mass of cabling. It's a common enough sight. So is it any wonder he touched a live wire? You wouldn't know which was which.
- Look at the poor fellow's work wear. Not exactly a uniform or protective clothing. And if he's working at height, where's his harness or fall arrestor? I suppose he's lucky he didn't drop to the ground (see last comment).
- Is that a metal ladder?
- They're going to rescue him by tying a skinny rope around his chest.
- And finally, if you've read the article, it says: "The victim was rushed to hospital after his co-workers dropped him during the rescue effort, witnesses said".
