Pin the tine on the outlet?

It's literally impossible to kill yourself by sticking a fork into the outlet. The reason is simple. The path to ground only passes thru the fork.

Could probably still start a fire, though.

Then you'd have to wait patiently for it to pick up a bit. It takes a good fire to do you in.

Well, maybe if you are covered with petrol (gasoline) and you stick it in long enough for the bottom of the handle to get hot enough to ignite it.
Of course, that is assuming that the Voltage is high enough to get the metal hot enough before the petrol evaporates away. -

unless you're grounded somewhere else

Also he has a 4 prong fork. No way he's getting that in a 3 hole outlet

Fuses protect wires in the walls, not what you plug into the socket.
If the tine in the neutral socket makes contact before live, it'll probably just pop the fuse. Hot first, and you better hope it's a GFCI.

If the live side makes contact first you have an issue though. Because then the path to ground passes through the fork, up the handle and through you. Then your muscles tense and you might not make the neutral side connect the other end fork anymore.

In your basic euro socket the safety latches don't open unless you poke both holes at the same time.
If you cut two middle spikes of a fork and manage to shove it in the socket, you'll just short the phase to the neutral and blow a fuse. You'll be part of a partial circuit and feel it, but most of the current will favor the direct "fork connection".
If you are in the United States of Dumbfuckistan and only have 120Vac in the socket, considering surface area of contact to the fork, you'll probably only get little over 20mA running through you. It'll take a long time to get a respiratory arrest. You'll probably get bored and detach yourself by leaning back. Heart complications may still follow.

The description is beyond hilarious, but it's only topped by the disclaimer at the bottom haha.
