In the trade it is called a short circuit. It is a very very low resistance load that will create a very very high current flow. This is the very reason that circuits are, or should be, protected with the proper size breakers or fuses, to interrupt this fault current flow.
When the hot wire touches the ground wire, it creates a short circuit, allowing excessive current to flow through the circuit. This can lead to overheating, potential electrical fires, or damage to electrical devices. In a properly designed system, protective devices like circuit breakers or fuses should trip to prevent these hazards. It's crucial to handle electrical systems safely and to consult a professional if there are any concerns.
This is what the purpose of a switch is. It connects the "hot" wire to the load. When this is done the load becomes energized.
An open circuit occurs when there is a break in the electrical path, cutting off the flow of current. When a hot wire touches ground, it can create a short circuit where current flows directly to ground instead of through the intended circuit, leading to potential danger and damage to the equipment.
An eagle can be electrocuted when it touches a hot wire and a metal crossbar simultaneously because it creates a path for electricity to flow through its body. The hot wire carries a high voltage, while the crossbar is grounded or at a different potential. When the eagle bridges the gap between these two points, it completes the electrical circuit, allowing current to pass through it, which can be lethal.
If wired correctly the red wire will be hot, but any wire can be hot regardless of colour if done incorrectly.
It will produce a dead short and blow a fuse if the circuit is fuse protected, if not it will burn the wire up until the wire(s) burns in half.

If a "hot" wire contacts the "neutral" or ground wire, electrical current flows to the ground.
what happens to telephone wires on hot days
If they are grounded they get an electric shock or electrocuted. If they are not grounded or in simultaneous contact with the neutral wire, nothing. That's why birds can sit on a high voltage wire and survive; they are not grounded.

Not a whole lot, get it on your head though... And I can almost certainly say you'll be in tears.
It heats up very hot and may explode.
