NoGooD Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 The Story DOVER, N.H. (CBS/AP) Kyle Dubois, a New Hampshire high school student who shocked himself so severely in shop class that his heart stopped beating, is suing his teacher, the school district and the city of Dover. Dubois and his parents claim teacher Thomas Kelley did not warn Dubois and other students of the dangers of the electrical demonstration cords in their electrical trades class. "As a master electrician and experienced teacher of electrical technology, Mr. Kelley knew or should have known that the electrical circuits in his classroom could administer harmful or fatal shocks to his students," the lawsuit states according to local station WMUR. 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. WMUR reports that Dubois' suit contends he suffered permanent brain damage "due to his heart stoppage." The lawsuit also claims Kelley was "less than eight feet away at the time and saw and heard students engaging in this activity." The lawsuit also states that Kelley was heard saying, "Kyle should try it with his nipples and that he, Mr. Kelley, would give him a Mountain Dew if he did so." Kelley resigned from his teaching position about a month after the incident. According to WMUR, the teacher has always said that he did not offer the soda. In a videotaped police interview days after the incident, Kelley gave different account of what happened. "I was talking about my fantasy baseball team with one student, and then the next thing I know, there was a commotion," Kelley told police. "I heard, you know, an 'Ouch!' and I look, and there's Kyle going to the ground." The part where I stopped reading because I was laughing to hard. 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. Quote
AntiThought Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 (edited) ROFL so close to earning himself a Darwin. I hope one of 2 things happens to this kid...... A ) He loses the lawsuit. B ) During the trial Kyle and his buddies "demonstrate" what they did for the judge/jury, only this time he suceeds in earning the Darwin Award. Edited September 4, 2010 by AntiThought Quote
AntiThought Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 On second thought as much as I love option B it may be a bad Idea. If he shocked himself again in that manner the judge might grant his lawsuit, because it could be argues that anyone who shocked themselves by the nipples a second time and died obviously must have had brain damage from the first attempt.

RoosterCogburn Posted September 5, 2010 Posted September 5, 2010 I don't know why people do it on their nipples. You get a much more pleasurable and jolting shock if you put them on your balls. Quote

I'm sure the kids lawyer could argue the brain damage was suffered while his heart was stopped due to an anoxic event. I feel it's more likely that there was brain damage long before this happened. At least for 1 brief, shining moment Kyle was the brightest kid in the room. I don't know why people do it on their nipples. You get a much more pleasurable and jolting shock if you put them on your balls. Are you sure you aren't JoeDirt? I +1 that though. Nothing says pleasure like 120v straight to the jewels. Quote
