One of my 18 year old former students showed me one of the stupid human
videos he had bought. I section I saw have a peeing on an electric fence
segment and the guy that did it defiantly felt it.
I used to test our electric fencer by tapping it with a finger. With boots
on it wasn't bad. Did I mention I was an electricians helper as a kid. I
really hate the 60 Hz buzz when you manage to get a solid ground with a live
110 wire. Never said I was a bright helper. The panel is so far away
sometimes.

I don't see how it would not shock you if you ****ed on it, though.
If

us?

pee is in droplets; the air in between insulates.

Mythbusters just tackled the ****ing on the third rail question. Short
version: you don't have the flow needed to conduct. That said, I still
wouldn't do it.


But, was the rail on the ground, or up closer to the head of yer pecker?
I
can see that on a long stream, it would start to break apart. But on a
short stream close up to the source, like electric wires are hung, that it
would be possible to get a connection.

But, like you say, I will let others find out. And I guess I can forget
about the time my friend peed on one and got shocked. He was pretty close
to it.

I guess, according to Mythbusters, I really didn't see and hear what I saw
and heard.
