An Italian man was hurt after climbing a pole, jumping to an electricity wire and falling.

Askari Jamshid, 48, suffered cuts and bruises in the April 8 incideant outside C-Post Co. on Soi X-Zyte. He had to be restrained by police while being treated by medics.

A 14-year-old witness, who shot a video of the manic Italian dressed only in shorts, said she saw the man walk into the construction site and start climbing a six-meter-tall pole. He then leaped to a power line and attempted to hang there until he fell and was hurt.

It took several passersby to restrain the man until authorities arrived.
