In a small town in Saudi Arabia, local boys found an innovate way to kill boredom by severing live power cables and using them as swings, not realizing it could be a fatal game. They just do this for fun although they know this would result in power cuts to several parts of the area.
A U-Tube film published in Sabq daily showed the boys jumping on the swing surrounded by the main power pylons that feed a large area near the Western Saudi town of Medina.
It is a deadly game
they dont realize they could be committing a suicide, the paper said, quoting an official at the electricity company in Medina.
True...
7th century meets 21st century.
