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

1.48K viewsOtherPhysics

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?

Got stuck between a tv and a floor lamp once as a child. Mom saw it and unplugged the lamp.
