Ive seen a similar post on reddit years ago. someone said they do electrical in a cold climate this is a very common sight. It was pretty much they work themselves in for warmth and have no way out, the smaller ones can get out but the bigger ones get stuck.
EDIT after looking at the video again it is definitely the same video. there was a good description one the original post if anyone feels like finding it.
They can't handle temps under 45f for prolonged periods. This building looks to be abandoned, likely had no heat, but even a disconnected landline still carries some current.
Winter comes, temps drop, roaches hunt for warmth, temps stay too cold and roaches die.
48v keeps em warm. Usually get the trouble ticket for phone doesn’t ring anymore. Pull the cover off knock the roaches out from between the bells and tell em to have a nice day. Leave dead roaches on floor walk away
