“Can ELECTRICITY pass through Flash light of the Digital
Camera to our body??? Yes it is 100% true.
This is a true incidence reported of a boy aged 19, who was studying in 1st
year of engineering, who died in Keshvani Hospital, Mumbai. He was admitted
in the Hospital as a burned patient.
Reason?
This boy had gone to Amravati (a place located in State of Maharashtra) on a
study tour, on their return they were waiting at the railway station to catch
the train. Many of them started taking pictures of their friends using
"Mobile Phones" and / or "Digital Camera". One of them
complained that, he was unable to capture the full group of friends in one
frame in the Digicam.
This boy moved away to a distance to get the whole group.
He failed to notice that at an angle above his head, 40,000 volts electrical
line was passing through.
As soon as he clicked the
digital camera? 40,000 volt current passed through the camera flash light to
his camera and then from his camera to his fingers & to his body. All
this happened within a fraction of a second. His body was half burned.
They arranged for an ambulance & his burned body was brought to Keshavani
Hospital, Mumbai.
For one & half days or
so he was conscious & talking. Doctors did not have much hope as there
were a lot of complex issues in his body. He passed away later.
