Judging by the dried foam on his head

Remains of their hats

and the fire spread,

Extent of the plasma arc path across the surface of the ground - a
self-sustaining fire is unlikely

it looks as
if these two were still alight or smouldering nicely when the emergency
services arrived.

They will have stood back and watched, until assured by the electric
company that the power was off, and attendance at site of electric
company personel to test it really is off.

I think it would be useful for police to consider using these images in
a warning campaign to deter metal thieves.

They never do, in case someone is offended.
You could say the same for car/motorbike crashes, etc.
It would probably help significantly if teenagers understood
how fragile their bodies are by actually seeing what happens
to bodies in a crash before they were allowed to control a
vehicle on the road, but that would be politically unacceptable,
so they are let loose at a time in their lives where they are
under a complete misapprehension of being indestructable.

Every Xmas time around here the local police/fire brigade place terribly
smashed up cars on the roundabouts along with suitable 'don't drink &
drive' posters.
