Dangling from a 25,000 volt cable

Shane WhiteShane White must have been the luckiest (or most stupid) man alive to have dangled on a railway cable.

Fortunately for him, however, he had unwittingly picked a seven minute period when the power was turned off - the first in 15 months.

Oblivious to the danger, he leapt from a footbridge and, egged on by a gang of youths, hung from the railway cable for some time, eventually dropping to the ground only when his baseball cap blew off.

His prank was watched by astonished passengers on a stationary train, one of whom took this photo.
