Have you ever been electocuted?

Question

or shocked? My sister got shocked by our christmas tree one year

Answer 1

Never have.

Answer 2

Electrocuted would be an understatement.

When I was in the third grade, I used to play the electronic keyboard. One time, as I was plugging it in (and the outlet was way up high, so that I had to stand on my toes), I accidentally placed my fingers across the terminals of the adapter. ZAP! It lasted for several seconds and then threw me back, I felt incredible pain ( and this wasn't the harmless little 110-Volt outlet. I got the whole 220V!), and I ran straight to my parents (barely breathing).
As I was plugging the darn thing in I could literaly hear, and feel the alternating current moving through me (creating a full-body muscle spasm). It was truly shocking, and I'll never forget it.

The End.

Answer 3

Yeah...I was unplugging my laptop a few years ago, and it was plugged into the outlet behind my bookcase, since all the others were full. It wouldn't come out, so I grabbed it funny and yanked, which made it come partway out. I tried again, but this time I touched the metal prongs. Ouch. Don't even want to know what it's like to get a full-fledged shock; that one was bad enough.

Answer 4

hahaha, to many times now.
i stuck wire into a household power point (240 volts in australia) when i was 3 or 4, got the shock of my life.
had numerous electric fence shocks, been shocked while welding a few times, and been shocked by car ignition systems more times than i care to remember (these can range from 20000 to 60000 volts), and dammnnnn they have some sting

Answer 5

Yes :-) Only when I was a kid though. I had the sudden urge to stick my finger in a light socket (Yeah, I know, Not very smart!) My brother, a couple of years later decided to plug a bobby pin into a light socket and pretty much blew all the breakers in the house. He was fine though, other than minor shock. It's not very pleasant, I wouldn't suggest you try it :-D

Answer 6

I've gotten shocked before. The last time I remember was with a carpet cleaning machine. I touched the switch area. It felt like I got hit with a virtual hammer.

Answer 7

I got shocked by a christmas tree when I was 2. From what I remember, it sucked. I was okay, though.

Answer 8

Yes, when I was little around 4 years old I put a paper clip in an outlet. My mom saw me as I was about to do it and broke me free with a wooden spoon. It hurt. It might also have something to do with this insanity thing I have going on LOL

Answer 9

More times than I care to remember. Everything from irons, light switches, vacuum cleaners, lamps, to heavy duty machinery. The latter flung me across the floor. When my niece was younger, sometimes when I held her hand outside, she'd jump away from me. We seemed to give each other shocks. I think they call that static electricity

Answer 10

Oh yes ! We were flooded one year, we had about 6 inches of water left, by the time my hubby and I went downstairs to
start cleaning up. Just as my husband was trying to tell me
not to touch the electic heater on the wall, I went ZAP !

Answer 11
