Forgive me if I have my wires crossed, but are you positive he's dead?
Jokes about someone doing his duty are repulsive. Its not just the quality of the posts, but also their frequency. Its shocking that you disconnected people have the capacity to do this. It was probably not his fault and you really have no ground to stand on if you can't understand how much this hurts his family!
Currently with all the negativity around here I'm not surprised people like internet ninja are blowing a fuse. Its so easy to get overloaded with your response. If I had the power, I would charge you people with assault and battery! Its totally shocking.
Let me be direct: I'm sure a lot of you do this on impulse, but you need to have at least some resistance to your surges of emotion. This just generates a lot of negative energy. Jolting remarks that are not grounded in reality just puts a heavy load on loved ones and family. Its not like they can flip a switch and make him live.
You all are just so insulated that I bet you aren't even phased by something like this. You need to find a better outlet for all your pent-up energy!
I'm sorry I got all charged up about this, but its hard to be neutral. I just get all amp'ed up when I read stuff like this. Its just so revolting.

Anyone know if the electrician was working on a.c. in DC?

I heard that a ptcr (Positive Temperature Coefficient resistor) shorted while he was close to the former. Hope he will be okay.

He is not dead,
he is in critical condition in the ICU in Washington DC right now on life support with 60% chance of recovery.
He had to get his arm amputated..
doctors are not sure yet the severity quite yet..

So, if this electrician was a Latin American savage and ends up dead as a result of taking a ride with Uncle Sparky...wouldn't that be called a BROWNout?

Q: Do you know how an electrician tells if he's working with AC or DC power?
A: If it's AC, his teeth chatter when he grabs the conductors. If it's DC, they just clamp together.
