when you come in contact with electricity the severity is based on the amperage(amounts of electrical current), duration of contact, and the path the current took through your body. holding a fork while sticking it in the socket could, if holding it with both hands, kill you. the path of the electrical current could go through one arm into the chest passing through your heart and back through the other arm sending your heart into fibrillation that could lead to death. if holding the fork with just one hand the current could keep the path in just the hand and maybe the lower arm giving a long tingling sensation that some people i guess my find "good". not me!! anyways keep that away from your heart!

It doesn't feel "good" really...it has happened to me also, I was plugging in the vacuum, and my foot was on a wet rag...oops. Yah, it gave me a good buzz, and it didn't hurt. But it does JOLT your entire body and give you a weird vibrating feeling...

Because you are a nut job! I've been shocked by a portable generator and believe me I didn't like it!
