turned the house into a toaster. had it happen to me a few years ago during a ice storm. a live line crossed to the house ground,to the main water meter . it blew the meter to pieces.water and 10 ft sparks like a submarine movie. yanked the main breaker out to no avail. a couple seconds later the pole transformer blew up. power stopped. i was lucky only plumbing and wireing damage.

There's no way that was a house, it was a transformer station or something.
