What makes you think that will work? That sounds like a very complicated way of just connecting the common to live with no human in the loop.
Ikr, this at least makes the pole get hot because current is actually running through part of it.
But at no point is a human part of the path of least resistance for the electricity.
the pole wouldn't get hot unless it was made of a ferrous metal like steel or iron. most of these poles should be made of aluminum.
You're confusing induction heating with resistant heating.
the gauge of metal the pole is made from is pretty thin. on top of that, it's very likely to be made from aluminum.
if electricity follows the path of least resistance, it would be through the person.
Ok, you're still failing here. The water content of a human body is irrelevant. A large contact area is irrelevant.
Let me make it easier for you. As I'm sure you know, to be electrocuted an electrical current needs to flow through someone's body. What part of the neighbour's body is the current going to enter, and which part is it going to leave?
