Victoria man builds up static electricity, discharges, burns things

Only in Australia!
Victorian authorities believe a man built up at least 30,000 volts of static electricity in his jacket simply by walking around the western Victorian city of Warrnambool yesterday.

The man left a trail of scorch marks and molten plastic behind him...

...The [Country Fire Authority] has Mr Clewer's jacket and says it is continuing to give off voltage.
