Default A little electricity 101 if you please

I'll answer only on the telephone thing. I've forever stripped phone wire
with my teeth, BUT, be advised from my understanding, there will be about
90 volts DC if the phone were to ring.

And finally, when splicing phone line, do the wires normally carry voltage
sufficient to shock or could you essentially splice them with your teeth
if you had to?
