RIP. If you do a deep dive into searching, there are interesting (but old) reasons why they bury locals bury electrocution victims.

I dont know to much about it but what i know there is two beliefs, i dont know if they are both believed in cambodia.

One is to cool down the person as electricity passing through your body heats it up.

Other one is that the earth would help get rid of the electricity in a sort of healing for those who believe it stay inside you.

Problem is that many dont seek medical Care if they seem to recover, infections and that its hard to peform cpr.

But we all know that cpr in cambodia is puting tigerbalm on the back and hope for the best so that one dosnt matter to much.

I think they used the wrong type of sand. They should have bought back some of the good stuff that they sent to Singapore and used that.

The only thing burying an electrocuted person in the sand is good for is making sure that any cuts or abrasions the victim might have sustained in the accident are now nice and dirty and infected.

I guess pure silver sand would have done the trick.
