"Is He Tarzan?" The Absurd Reason Behind a Dangling Tightrope Act on a Utility Pole

A "Tarzan" appeared in a neighborhood in Argentina in the middle of the night.

What on earth is the identity of the man climbing freely up and down the utility pole?

In Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, a man moves agilely across a utility pole as if he were a flying squirrel.

At first glance, you might mistake him for a circus performer.

As it turns out, the man is a thief. He climbed onto the power lines, cut the cables, and suspended his body from them to pull them down with his weight, stealing copper wires.

As the man's theft continued, the electricity was eventually cut off.

Residents have nicknamed the man "Tarzan" and are calling for his swift arrest.
