You're very welcome! Yeah, it's strange how the other person did not get electrocuted as well!

Whatever the reason, he's very lucky. In a way it's also fortunate that the older man had not noticed anything was wrong, as the older man might have touched him before understanding that he was being electrocuted. The older man might not have been as lucky as the man in white.

Why did the guy's face darken, though? Does our blood pool in our faces during electrocution, or was that the electricity burning his skin tissue?

I actually didn't notice the darkening of the face! That's interesting. Usually with electrocution videos, either the victim just falls down to the ground or they go up in flames. I never noticed their faces before, probably because most videos don't focus on it. I guess the electricity does cook the person from within so it can darken you. Maybe that's the stage before a victim goes up in flames?

Probably because of the shoes or whatever he wore, could have been some kind of carpet under his feet where he stood.
