Nothing wrong with grounding the plastic breaker switch to the breaker box AND preventing the breaker from tripping. Genius work, genius.

Could be improved by placing a bucket of water nearby in case of an electrically caused fire.

Worth noting, the breaker will still trip just fine if you do this. It'll just be more annoying to reset since you'd need to remove that wire first.

Still very stupid, just not in the way it seems at first glance. Pointless, but not dangerous.
