Recently, according to local Thai media, on the 8th, a repairman in his 60s was electrocuted while repairing electrical equipment at a home in Chonburi province in eastern Thailand.
The repairman was climbing up a ladder to the roof to fix a broken electric wire when he accidentally touched a leaking gutter and was electrocuted. The repairman was shaking.
The man then had a seizure and lost consciousness while hanging from the ladder. The owner of the house, Sen-Iam Kukkong (82, female), saw this and immediately rushed to the repairman. She told the repairman
Instead of touching him with their hands, they wrapped a rope around the repairman's ankles and pulled him down from the ladder, because touching an electrocuted person with bare hands could be dangerous.
When the repairman hit the ground, she immediately performed CPR. She continued CPR without pause.
The repairman regained consciousness in about a minute. Thanks to the quick response, less than two minutes after the shock, the repairman was able to answer questions by the time the emergency services arrived.
Sen-Iam said that she had previously learned how to save her life from electric shock by watching a YouTube video. Local media reported, "Grandma's courage and life-saving power gained from YouTube..."
With his life-saving knowledge, he became a hero who saved a life."
