Vargem Grande, Brazil - October 14, 2024

[WARNING: sensitive content]

A teen boy suffered an electric shock when he attempted to climb up a wall and accidentally came in contact with exposed wiring, as this dramatic footage shows.

The victim, not named, is only 16 years old and luckily survived the incident, which took place at a car wash in the municipality of Vargem Grande, in Brazil, on 14th October.

Surveillance footage shows him climbing a wall apparently to retrieve something from further up when he gets zapped by the electrical current after touching a wire by mistake.

He falls to the ground and is unable to move from the shock.

A man runs over when he sees him on the ground and tries to help him get up.

From there, the boy was reportedly taken by car to the city's health unit and then sent to the Djalma Marques Municipal Hospital in Sao Luis.

Doctors examined him and after a series of medical tests, they determined he did not have any serious injuries and discharged him.
