Myth Busted!

My only thought was that the capacitor might've released enough current to give him a wee shock (I thought he just tweaked a nerve or his funny bone or something tbh), but thought it was worth looking into. I'll have a peek and see if any wires got unsheathed or are touching his frame. Cheers Zorg.

Incidentally, when you put a 9V battery on your tongue, the tingly feeling you get is not electricity passing through your tongue. Its actually the taste of the salt produced by electrolysis of the salt water on your tongue....

But that is how the electricity is being conducted... so technically the tingly feeling is still electricity, but not in it's purest form (lightning or sparks)

Could just be a sharp end of wire, that sometimes feels like a small shock.

or he is telling porky's

Yeah people have actually died from licking 9 volt batteries, apparently if it hits a nerve it can kill you

an american soldier on patrol in iraq died licking a 9v battery

bush- am sure man and fish can coencide happily together in years to come.

Back to the thread a doubht he would have gotten an electric shock but i think if the battery made the frame live it would have shorted out the curcuit board thats a guess .i should probably no training to be an electrician. but i hate my job
