A painter who dropped thinner into an electrical transformer fell from nearly five meters after it exploded.
Booncherd Klongked, 34, was severely injured in the Feb. 27 fall from a signboard at Royal Garden Plaza. He was taken to a nearby hospital.
Witness Supaporn Homchum, 42, said the painter had scaled the signboard to a height of nearly five meters when he spilled paint thinner, which fell into a high-voltage transformer below.
The transformer exploded, knocking Booncherd from his ladder.
