A man who turned into a 'human fireball' after being electrocuted by an 11,000 volt shock has been dubbed a medical miracle after doctors said he never should've survived his injuries.
Darren Harris, from Manchester, had been urban exploring and collecting scrap from an abandoned steel works in Wolverhampton when he stumbled across a switchboard and electric mains in November 2020.
Presuming they were switched off as the building was set to be demolished, the 29-year-old scaffolder put his hand on a live copper bar and was instantly "catapulted" across the room, the Mirror reports.
