I have licked only few batteries in my life, I am afraid of the electric current actually.

I grabbed an electric fence once, I just had to know how it would feel…
It was strange :thinking:

I would not advise doing that here in poland. Some people are dumb enough to put wires in the AC socket. :cold_sweat:

I happen to know a trick for checking if there is a current in a wire. You have to touch it with the back of your hand, the right one. Muscles contract and the arm will move away from the wire.

As specified a few times in this question (thanks @Michael Martinez), using the back of the hand is for safety. An electric shock can cause muscles to clench. If you place your hand around the wire and get shocked then you risk being unable to unclench your hand. Using the back of the hand, with the palm away from any wires, means that if a shock clenches your muscles then your hand and arm move away from the wires.

I have used it once, and it was indeed as described, my arm was in pain tho, for a few minutes.

But I dont advise on touching any wires, anywhere.

I helped this guy outta my car. Creepy as ever but too cool to kill. The white thing on its back had a skulls face etched into it. Pretty bad ass.

“Volts hurt, Amperes kill” was what the teacher told us. A typical discharge of static electricity haves a potential of between 15,000 and 50,000 volts, but the intensity is so low that it barely stings a bit. Whereas a typical hallogenic bulb operating at 12 volts carries enough amperes to give you a cardiac arrest if you touch the wires when it’s lit.

Volts are akin to speed (they are not actual speed, but it’s good enough for the simile). If a building gets hit by one gnat at Mach 1, barely nothing happens: high speed, little mass. Whereas amperes are like mass (they aren’t exactly mass, but the number of electrons on the move.) Hit a building with ten billion gnats at 10 km/h and there’ll no longer be a building…

In a way I want this to happen too

Is Carbon even remotely useful? I never found a use to it

Well, carbon dioxide is useful for breathing, without it there wouldn’t be enough partial pressure in the lungs to drive oxygen into the bloodstream.

I have seen Charon scams when I played in beginning. But not now.

I am also making jetissoned containers with them to leave a short message in space.

From the “internal combustion engine is dead” series:

Alfa Romeo Giulia
vs
Aston Martin DB11
vs
Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 1LE

Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport

Ferrari 488 GTB

Lexus LC500

McLaren 570GT

Mercedes Benz AMG GTR

Nissan GT-R Nismo

Porsche 718 Cayman S

Porsche 911 Turbo S

Tesla Model S P100D

The Tesla pulled clear all of its length ahead of the other cars before they even started moving. And mind you, that electric beast weights half a ton more than any of its competitors.

lol, well I happened to know the fence in question was for horses and did not contain a current large enough to cause harm, I am a bit crazy but not stupid :rofl:

@Yiole_Gionglao is right, amps cause friction in the body as the current passes through you, a persons own resistance to electricity can make them more or less likely to be harmed (less resistance is good). Volts are not a good judge of weather or not current will be harmful, you can be zapped by extremely high volts and be fine if the amps are low.

I did not blindly grab said electric fence hehe, but…I did want to know how it would feel, if the horses must feel it sometimes then why should I not know what it is like :thinking:
