Working around high voltages?

My most horrible story. An electrical engineer (college trained and
state registered), was working on a live 11 KV overhead system when
somehow he touched a hot wire. He was revived and sent home, but
later died. An autopsy revealed that several internal organs had been
cooked by the current (like one of those hot dog cookers), and he had
died of the toxic effects.
