I understand his family is setting up the "Take-A-Leak" Foundation to warn people about the dangers of urinating near power lines (either barefoot or wearing prosthetic devices).

Alzheimer mother's indoor poodle dog has an outdoor poop pen.
The Outdoor dog habitually and compulsively would mark HIS territory relentlessly there keeping the poodle poop pen wet.
Dad decided to add a wire to the electric fence circuit at just the right lower height inside a PVC pipe split in half lengthwise. Somehow, the shepherd mix outdoor dog has sensed the electricity and we've not heard a yelp but the poop pen has stayed dry.
I guess is few zaps at other parts of the pen convinced him he needed to pay attention to his sensory input about the electricity being on and protect his penis!
I don't think that would be a favored way to go by any means--in Thailand or elsewhere!

Salt water conducts electricity folks, so watch were you wiz. It sure does! Remonds me of a "tale" told by a USAF M/Sgt. I once knew... He "ran" the MARS facility that I used to frequent in Florida.
He was stationed at Eileson AFB near Fairbanks, AK MANY years ago and, had a BC-610 (One VERY large obsolete military transmitter) which he operated at his home (nice room heaterin the winter time). He made a "homebrew" verticle antenna with a very large base loading coil to use with his gear. One very cold Alaska morning (-30+ F.) he went out to find a neighbor's dog frozen solid near his verticle antenna. From the obvious "yellow snow" it was immediately deduced that the dog had decided to pee on his antenna loading coil at a time when he was transmitting! Unlike the fenceposts that the dog had "marked" in his past..., this one "marked" him for immediate extinction!
Just one of the MANY tales that the guy would relate when properly lubricated with a few cold "807s" at the local watering hole!
