Why do electrocuted people get “glued” to the electrocuting object?

I have seen lots of electrocution videos where the victims get “glued” to the very object that killed them, like electricity poles, to the point that they stay in the air and not fall on the ground. How/Why?

We had a science teacher that had an aquarium with coins in the bottom full of salt water I think it was and some electrodes, you got to keep what ever coins you could grab, spoiler alert no one ever got any coins, even if you tried to squeeze your hands on each side of the glass as soon as it was in the water you would make a fist.
