This is a well documented image. The prisoner was led to believe he would be electrocuted if he stepped off the box. However, there was no actual current and electrocution wasn't possible. It is still torture, but not as described. https://www.britannica.com/topic/Abu-Ghraib-prison#/media/1/958571/273583
