i don't like mythbusters =-=. to many variables and inconsistant data that they seem to pull out of their butt useing ballistics gell and c4. Don't get me wrong i love seeing things blow up but for factual information that needs to be in a controlled environment which they cant supply is really annoying. Also in that episode they said that if you were to **** in a solid stream yes the electricity can travel up your urine. also depending on the mans diet of how high his sodium level was his urine could have x2 more conductive than that of a normal human. Plus that downed power line was prob carrying more amps than what the mythbusters were using.

oh its real, Mythbusters can suckit

Heres one from an airport security cam.

Best part is the delayed reaction from the spark to him slowly slumping over. Bet he saw the life of his unborn kids flash before his eyes.
