Unfortunately the driver panicked and got electrocuted buy he did survive. Entry wound through hand an exit out foot. If you have to exit a vehicle with energize wires on it jump with both feet together as far as you can an then shuffle your feet side by side. Never walk or run. The voltage going thru the ground is like a rock hitting the water an seeing the ripple. Same goes for electricity. So if you walk away in between your stride you have a difference in potential an will get shocked of some sort.
Is that for real? Wow is all I can say. Years ago I saw a burned up guy laying in some water. He was driving through runoff that was about 14" deep and had gasoline on top where some moron drove through a gas station and hit a pump. For some reason, it didn't shut off before spewing quite a bit of gas. Anyway, the guy that was driving through the water ended up engulfed in flames when his car ignited the whole mess and he bolted from the car. He didn't make it very far and sort of resembled the person it this picture.
Also stealing power or copper can be troublesome.
