Men banghead
I know what its like I PMSL when a freind of mine did it. This was the same week he super glued his finger to his face and tried out freeze spay on the back of his hand. Oh and I nearly forgot he put an electrolitic capcacitor in the wrong way round on a pre amp ...good big bang...all in one week!
:doh:
My electrician ex once stood bragging in my mum's kitchen about how he'd never been electrocuted and promptly electrocuted himself whilst trying to fix her washer rolleyes
Wasn't fun for him but was fun to watch :twisted:

Not an electrical burn but I ended up face down in a fire in August when a fire stunt I was doing went wrong. Got taken to nearest A&E who then put me in another ambulance and sent me about 80 miles to spend 2 nights in a specialist burns unit.
Hasn't put me off doing fire stunts though!
And some people use electricity for sexual stimulation? :shock: :shock: :shock:
Bad luck sparky :cheers:
innocent :whistling: :whistling:
This might be kinda off-topic a little -
but talking of electric shocks....... the trolleys in my local Tesco must be feckin super-charged!
i grab a trolley, get halfway down an aisle, and get a full-on static shock you can actually hear the 'zzap' :shock: it leaves my arm pretty numb for a few seconds too confused
cue me, gingerly pushing trolley around with the heel of my hand, and literally throwing stuff in to avoid skin contact with siad trolley :shock:
Now, it looks/sounds pretty damn funny, especially as every so often I forget to not touch the metal mesh, and i'll suddenly jump, whip hand back and say 'shit' quite loudly. I'm sure I must look like i'm having some kind of seizure rotflmao
I thought it was just me - but today I saw someone else do exactly the same thing - so, is it just this particular Tesco or is it a design fault with their trolleys??? :?:

Ouch!! Sorry to hear that Sparky. Looks like you will have to stick to "running barefoot" for a while. I hope you get better soon.
Me being an M3, the power has to be kept to a maximum of 10 watts of course.
Just thought I would throw in some more radio terms for Dawn_Mids' benefit lol

As an ex sparky in the navy i can honestly say that any real electrician worth his/her salt must have had a least one belt in their life. Its what makes you careful.

Nope Morrisons have same problem.
Your footwear and the trolly wheels are charging the trolley. Try wearing different shoes...or take a small lenght of wire with you and hang it from the bottom of the trolley so it touches the ground. This will discharge the trolley through the wire and not through you! Look I can be usefull.. wink
:shock: rotflmao not sure if I look more of a twat jigging about from static shocks, or standing at the store entrance tying bits of wire to the bottom of my trolley! lol
I can just see it now, them people in white coats would be after me like a shot!!
