#1 Sorry but I think this one got MythBusted. What's the difference between this and the pissing on the 3rd rail myth that they busted years ago? A urine stream is not continuous and therefore could not possibly serve as a conductor.

#3 "A urine stream is not continuous and therefore could not possibly serve as a conductor."

I think it may be continuous if he had a healthy prostate and he was drinking beer. He did hit the power pole, but in his defense, he honked first.

#4 More likely he just blundered into the live wire while stumbling around. The Mythbuster segment was pretty damned convincing on the science of "don't whiz on the electric fence".

#6 I can sadly tell you form 1st hand experience that a stream of urine IS a conductor. I hit a cattle fence while taking a leak one night when I was in high school. I can definitely assure you that there was a conduction of electrical current.

#7 I can personally testify to the "don't whiz on the electric fence thing" . Broken stream? depends on the voltage in the line he knocked down.
