I installed the air conditioning. Then, while extending the pipe outside, I got caught in a high voltage line. I fell from the third floor. I had internal bleeding. My heart stopped. A healthcare friend who was there at the time rushed to help. God bless him, he intervened and got my heart working again. I stayed in intensive care for 11 days. For 7 of those days, I was unconscious. Everyone thinks I am dead. Those who see me are astonished. They say, 'You were electrocuted and fell from a height, you must have had a divine blessing.' I want to tell those who thought I was dead: I did not die, I am alive. I came out of there in one piece, thank God," he said.
