Student Electrocutes Himself, Sues Teacher

At 18 years old, this student is considered an adult.  He is able to vote (if registered), enter into a contract, and serve in our military.  In any news report, he would be called a man.  He should admit that he did something stupid and move on.  Now the whole world, yes the whole world, knows about his foolish shenanigans.  He should be thankful that they weren't using table saws that day.  He probably would've sawed his arm off and then claimed that he didn't know it was "dangerous."  There was a time that Americans had a little pride and were too ashamed to admit to doing something this ignorant.  The only thing this "adult" should receive is the Darwin award.
An American student whose heart stopped after he deliberately electrocuted himself in a science class is suing his teacher for not warning him it was dangerous. Kyle Dubois, 18, is also taking legal action against the school district and the city of Dover in New Hampshire. Dubois and his parents claim teacher Thomas Kelley did not tell him and other students of the dangers of the demonstration power cords in their electrical trades class. They are seeking compensation for medical expenses, lost income due to time away from work and other damages related to the incident, which occurred on March 11. Dubois attached an electrical clamp to one nipple while another student attached another clamp to the other. A third student plugged in the cord. Dubois was critically injured and his legal team claim he has suffered permanent brain damage.
