A buddy of mine, several years ago, was hooking up his battery and his wrence smacked the fender while everything was connected up. He really didn't get hurt, but it was really funny, watching him jump cause he just knew he had gotten fried. Which it did make a nice spark but no real injury.
Other than my sides from laughing at him.

One of my buddies grabbed an extension cord out of his car to run a light and every time he tryed plugging in the light the cord shocked him... Notice I said "every time"... He tryed plugging it in 4 times before I stopped laughing long enough to ask him if he needed a different extension cord
LMAO

I was working on my Taurus with the McIntosh system, and we had a Brax cap on it. Well I was taking the brax cap out of the system and I forgot to discharge it.
Truth be known, I don't remember what happened next, I just remember being on the ground with a tingling in my hands and my head hurting.
Those things have quite a kick I guess.
