The best solution is to find an off switch or disconnect, of course.
But sometimes, especially in the US, the switch might be a mile away or otherwise inaccessible.
In such cases a good solution is to temporarily short the fence. Any piece of metal long enough that you can stick one end in the ground and then lean the other end against the bottom of the fence will do the job. It’s not 100% effective in situations where the ground is dry, but in a case like these guys had where the ground is wet, it would have completely neutralized the effectiveness of the fence.
