The Indian train dude died instantly because the current was broken as soon as he let go, those other guys were caught on the rail and wires where the current was allowed to run through his body activating the sensitive nerve tissue, causing him to move and even remaining conscious, despite for all good purposes being was dead.. In other words instead of them living off of oxygen and signals from the brain the current was a few mins) keeping him alive in their suspended animated state.. If you were to decapitate someone while they were being electrocuted its a possibility that their body would move in a similar manner, for a few mins, just as long as the current isn't broken..
