Shocking!

This is a warning image from an electric pole. I find the image quite stunning. It is suggesting that you could get electroctuded by simply walking by the pole and am not entirely sure what to make of the warning. Clearly, you do not want to climb the pole and touch the power lines, but is walking by the pole dangerous? It seems a bit extreme. If it was really that dangerous wouldn't they just fence off the area? There was none.

I love the bright primary colors in this and the striking motion of the silouhette getting zapped. Who knew that electricity was red? :-)
