Not exactly breaking news.

I recall that where I worked, we were told by management to "never
walk past a problem". This stuck.
I recall a lift at a local store that has a paper message saying that
the emergency phone was not working and giving a mobile phone number
for people to report a proble. It was difficult to get through to the
manager that this was unacceptable.
I guess many of us see potentially unsafe things - it is often hard
to get something done about it though.


OTOH, he did have to work to get electrocuted - climbing a fence
because the gate to the area with the dodgy light was locked.


A judge would have to decide if it was what a reasonable person would do.


The pictures show a fence that looks to be about 2.5m high. Short of
putting razor wire on top, I don't see how it could have been made any
more difficult to get to the light.
