I wonder why it didn't trip the fuse in the transformer?
Sometimes they take 2 or 3 zaps before blowing.

I was patrolling a 500 kV line this past fall, and i cut a cherry sapling that had about 30 ft of clearance from tips to conductors. I cut it with a handsaw and pushed it over and it nailed me. Hurt the rest of day. Those EHV lines are a lesson in just how powerful electricity is, you dont have to be anywhere near making contact to get a shock.
