Reminds me of Mohan Bhuyan's statement in one report: "Railfan's rooftop revelry ends on the rails"!

The point is that with 25 kV AC, this idiot would probably have gotten shorted already. Due to the higher voltage, the arcing distance will be higher.

Karan, 25000AC is known as V(rms). The actual pull of that over one cycle is going to be 25000 * 2 * 1.414 = 70700V. AC has 60cycles a sec, so imagine how much higher the risk of AC is.
