Yes, the man will get an electric shock. The aluminium sheet is gradually charged up by the discharging current of the atmosphere. Eventually, the voltage will increase up to a certain point depending on the capacitance of the capacitor formed by the aluminium sheet, the insulating slab, and the ground. When the man touches that charged metal, he will get a shock.
