Depends. May not hurt at all. I have held the 2nd anode of a color TV and all it would do was pump my arm. It is not the voltage that "shocks" you. It is the current. In some cases, a quarter of an AMP can be lethal. I had a digital camera that had a short in it and when the flash went off it would shock me. I almost threw it across the room. The discharge of the capacitor in the case in point can be of the order of several milli-amps and can "shock", but is not sustained long enough to cause much injury.

It might damage the nervous systems and well ouch!!!! This hurts a lot for the rest of the life. Another thing that might happen is that the person would faint for some time. The area that is in contact might burn into a coal like sustance and breaks off easily It doesnt hurt if ur standing on an insulated area. I recommend u dont try this. Take care dude.
