Can't. It blew off his hand.

At best he's only a semiconductor...

He's revolting. Give him some time and he'll be amped up, ready to go and can start conducting with an opening "Ohm" ... or call his friend Farad.

He could have chosen to be a positive force in the world...
There was potential there. ;)

I heard his favorite band was AC/DC.

No way .... his favorite was Ride the Lightning ... or maybe Shock the Monkey.

I fought Ohm’s Law, and the law won...”

Oh, well, it was worth a shot.

Perhaps he was a member of the French Resistance

Was, but someone egged him on and now he's french toast...

“The authorities identified him by his hand which was blown off his body”

That’s gotta hurt.

You'll have to 'talk to the hand.'

“Only because one of his hands survived incineration were officers able to identify the man as German of Kazakh origin.

“His fingerprints were already logged on police files,” a local police spokesman said. “The force of the shock was so great that the hand was severed from his body.”

Now he’s one of the wipeless!!
