I’m that lady who’s just FEELING it tbh cables were like that and safety precautions weren’t hard set in yet Oh wow this is horrifying Holy shit Why don’t we see this kind of stuff more in history books?! I’d be way more interested in history if I understood that people were afraid of electricity because they were afraid of power lines slicing them to peices like cheese-wire! History books make it sound like “oh those silly people thought electricity carried demons or something!” Rather than “those poor people opposed electricity because they were terrified that eventually there would be so many power lines they wouldn’t be able to see the sun anymore.” Forbidden Zipline Me, reading about people fearing electricity when it was invented: well, people always fear changes and the new, so-*further reads about the madness that was the massive powerlines and its horrifying lack of safety”-you know what. I would do the exact same: be terrified of the “giant electricity spider”. -- source link
