This might be a dupe but I never saw it. SAN ANTONIO –– A Pleasanton man says he learned the hard way why it's not a good idea to steal copper. He was disfigured after he was shocked by 138,000 volts. Lucky to be alive, Blake Higdon is telling his story only to KENS 5 in the hopes of saving someone else's life. "I'm a fine example of what not to do," he said. Higdon never faced criminal charges. With no arms and no legs, he says that was his punishment for trying to steal copper. |

Quoted: Good for him doing the right thing after the fact I suppose.This might be a dupe but I never saw it.

With no arms and no legs, he says that was his punishment for trying to steal copper. With that said if you were to throw him into a pile of leaves, we'd have to change his name to Russel. Or if he falls into the pool, we'd have to change his name to Bob. Or if he's laying drunk in front of the door, Matt. |

"The only thing that saved me it disintegrated my hands," he said. "It's definitely a miracle and I could have died, I should have died."
No kidding––I wonder how much that five weeks of ICU cost ME. Fucker. Of course, now I have to get a second job so I can send him a monthly check, pay his rent/utilities/food, and future medical bills. Fucker!

Quoted: My guess is that he can still get crabs.Quoted: Stupid hurts, as it should. I hope this fucker's balls itch him for the rest of his life. Since he lost his arms and legs in this 'accident' , I suspect the rest of his 'appendages' were lost,also.  Even if somebody has to install them. |
