      • 10 Mile obstacle course in Virginia this fall says 1 obstacle is wires that can cause 10,000 volt shock, is that true or a lie? Seems like that would kill people.
        They're lying right?
    • nope

      • nope
      • Not if the amps are low enough. Stun guns are like 50,000+ volts.

      • Ran the Tough Mudder earlier this year and had a blast. The worst that those wires will do is shut down your body and make you poop yourself. Otherwise, you're all good.

      • Only a moron who knows nothing about electricity would ask a question like this. It's not the volts, it's the amps that kill you.

      • if a 14kV transmission wire falls to the ground it will arc and conduct through only a very small amount of moisture all the way through to your body and kill you.
