If this happened in a fantasy novel the author would be hinting that the house with an eagle on its crest is about to go up in flames :-(

This is the most metal thing I've seen today. It should be the album cover of some kind of death metal album of nothing but patriotic songs.

We had a couple of pigeons do this on the transformer outside of my bedroom when I was a kid. I still remember the *boom*.

BVOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNG (i saw a rat get fried while too close of a 20000v "transfer pole thing", noise remains mostly the same.

I'm afraid to touch anything now because I don't know what an energized stick is. Fuck.

Exactly what happened?

Bird flew onto busbar. It's wing hit the terminal in the background and shunted the current through it's body.

RepostFromLastWeek
Shit ton of energy went through an animal mostly filled with water. Said water then rapidly heated, vaporizing the animal in question.

I don't think he'll be able to walk this one off guys

Haha, it flew away without its feet.
linkapedia
maybe the soul, the rest of it is in puddles
leftyshuckles
That's an interesting theory
KingORedLions
Well, it's almost certainly not wrong. It certainly flew away - just not necessarily all in the same direction.
leftyshuckles
Boom!
RailgunZx
Seems fake to me. What conducted the electricity from the stick through the rest of the eagle's body?

background. probably hit that with his tale.

Looks like a grounding bus bar.
KomradeMeowz
I concur!
Strostkovy
It probably hit it's wing on the charred terminal in the photo background.
KraitG
The bird opened its wings and touched something else
tzxAzrael
yep, that could do it... this is the comment / answer i came to the comment section to find.
hardytardigrade
Ah
AkLonewolf
Lots of Eagles in AK... literally have seen this happen. Wow was it surreal.
CallmeMefford
Is that in a substation? Voltage regulator? Whatever it was, it didn't hurt the bird for very long!

I hope it will get back on it's feet soon.

Did it explode?

Yeah but only because it didn't spread enough freedom to countries with oil

No, but it got fired!
rickeyspanish
I'm just wonder how wood conducts electricity
unrulypubes
The stick looks wet and wet wood is a great conductor of electricity. That's why they tell us not to stand under tree during thunderstorms.
KomradeMeowz
That appears to be a somewhat tarnished copper grounding bar, I'm assuming the bird touched something high voltage with a wing. Or I'm wrong
meetmicah
Looks like rust, not wood.
Compound515
Yeah that's not wood

KraitG
Yup
Allofyoush
I won't make the reference if nobody else will
mdcrmn
wait how did it make a complete circuit? and that bar doesn't look like it should be energized
pobody
The burn mark on the insulator behind looks like it had something to do with it.
IveRegisteredThreeTimesAndKeepForgettingPleaseSendHelp
That's not red paint in the background, is it?
natatatles
I'm assuming the red stuff in the back is blood from the exploding bird @OP

I'm glad, I'd have hated to think it fried it's feet and the flew around with bloody stumps til it died.

Like that scene from shrek?

Do you have pictures of that? Morbid curiosity.
flassk
i'd say there's not much left of it if you notice the red splat behind the feet.
MyCatLikesToFruitcake
Yeah but there should be chunks and piles.
OhFaceYeah
My dad worked for the Electric Co. (not the TV show) and he said they would mostly disintegrate and turn into dust with a few feathers left.

Eagles are cool and all, but I would love to see one explode. Just so I could say that I saw an eagle explode.

The most american thing ever
onlyreplieswithelijahwoodsayingterrific
A friend told me if you give a bird alka seltzer, it can't burp so it just explodes,never seen it in person but it sounds so wrong to me.

I've heard a similar thing about dry rice expanding in their stomach, its all BS sadly.
