im literally just sitting here with my converted hand-held 10kV - 20kV spark gap generator with a high voltage diode and capacitor wired up and im repeatedly charging it to a few 10kV then discharging it by shorting it and watching it go flash-bang over and over...

I am easily amused.

Not to sure to be honest. But I can say when i was electrocuting random things at one point I picked up a credit card and started zapping hte security chip with it. Being made of plastic i held it with my other hand not thinking it would/could zap me (not realized it had a large NFC antenna inside covering most of the size of the card.. needless to say i got a nasty jolt, indirect however thanks to the plastic and it was not mild to say the least.

when i repeated the "experiment" this time not holding the card and zapped it sparks flew out of all the sides of the credit card, so not surprising i got a nasty zap.
