Questions
Who do you think is at fault here?
I think that whoever was running the boomlift is at fault because they were the ones that hit the electrical pole causing the accident.
If you were at the scene what would you have done to counter or help the situation?
I would call 911 right as it happened and try to help the Crums as fast as I can.

Well done overall. Be sure to capitalize key words in your title.
I think it was on one hand crum's fault because he was controlling the lift, but also the organizer's because he should make sure to tell him where risks are or not letting it have risks. I would call 911 and not go try to help until osmeone secures that the place is safe.
i think corey crum is at fault here because he was controlling the lift and he reached over and hit the electracal line. id call 911 and stay there and wait for the police but i wouldnt touch the lift becasue i aint tryna die
I don't think anyone is at falt in this situation. I think that it was just a bad accident. If I was helping and I saw this happen, I would go to him and see if I could help and if I could not, I would call 911. And until the ambulance got there, I would try CPR.
I think that whoever put the lift there should be at fault because they placed there and they his the pole cause it to shock them. I would call 911 right away and tell them what happened. I wanna get close because that could result in getting shocked too, the boy was lucky that he got away with injurys.
I think this was his fault for not being more cautious and aware of his surroundings. If he wouldv'e seen that there was an electrical wire and thought that it might be dangerous he could have lived. His wife should have also known that if someone is being eletricuted you don't grab them.
2. I wouldn't have grabbed him I would have gotten ahold of 911.
I agree with you his wife shouldve known better and shoulve tried to shut off the electricity grabbing him was not a good idea and resulted in her dying which is sad because she couldve survived.
1. it was clearly an accident so no one is really at fault and if anything coach crum was on the boom lift so if anything its his own fault
2. i mean theres nothing you can really do to stop electricity and the only real way to counter the situation is to prevent it in the first place
I agree with you if anyone would be at fault it would be him I guess just because hes the only one who could counter it and your right you cant really help unless you counter it before it happens.
I think that the people that was running the boomlift is at fault because the boomlift shocked Mr.Crums. If I was there I would call 911 and then go help Mr. Crums. I would have taken him away from danger then I would try and see if he was still alive or give him CPR.
