      The TIG welder I use at my job has high voltage / high frequency start that activates about a second to get arc started without touching the tip.
      My electrode holder was cracked up and I kept it taped up with black tape but one time the tape was getting pretty worn and the arc decided to jump through the crack into my bare hand.

      It's a certain charge transfered in a specific time period called the cell time constant which depolarizes the cell membrane. For example: a shock of 30 µC feels the same with large contact areas whether it is given with 200 V, 330 V (85 nF) or higher voltages. A shock with 10 µC feels the same at 450 V as it does at 120 V, or at 1000 V.
      So the charge in every half wave depolarizes the cell membrane. So the thresholds will be positively correlated to the frequency. But the energy will be different and therefor heat and other effects will increase.

      A farmer at work once told me of a friends funeral he had to attend, and that he had died from a lightning strike (technically), I dont believe he died immediately ( some hours or a day later), as he was a shortish distance (10m maybe, not sure) from where lightening had struck ground zero. The hospital staff dont really understand it properly either, but they believe it was like an EMF or EMP type force that was generated in his vicinity and can cause the human body electrical signals to just stuff up & die, and there is not really anything they can do in such rare cases.

      at standard American voltage of 120, and even up to 240, the lethality doesn't so much come from the electricity frying you, but actually paralyzing your heart/lungs while the electricity flows through those parts. Deaths from residential power usually come from people GRABBING something thats live and are unable to let go. A brief brush across mains voltage, while not very fun, is rarely life threatening for a healthy adult.

      ​@@evil17 There was a case where lightning struck the ground in the middle of a football game and although no-one was directly struck, several players dropped to the ground, injured. When lightning strikes the ground, it dissipates in a circular pattern and the voltage between your feet can be over 100,000V. So if you think lightning is going to strike near you even hitting a wooden or metal post, keeping your feet close together may save you from injury.

    There is a video called "listening to radio with grass" that illustrates what's going on here.
    A bunch of bored people break into an AM broadcast antenna site and put plants on the antenna, which is insulated from ground and carries high voltage at high frequency. The plants instantly burn, forming an arc speaker that makes the modulated sound audible. They're wearing gloves, thinking that they're protected from the voltage, but at such high frequencies the gloves just create a capacitor and the voltage goes straight through. They don't instantly seize up and die because of the high frequency (500+ kHz for an AM broadcast), but they soon feel the pain from the heat generated within their body by the current passing through them. So they're being cooked from the inside and I'm going to guess they felt this for a very long time afterwards and may have had permanent tissue damage.

    Volts x Amps = Watts. Watts x time = Joules. Styropyro has a Bachelor's in Chemistry, which outranks an electrician in terms of academic brownie points, though his electrial knowledge is self-taught. But he's a very clever guy, and has pissed about with high-power lasers for years yet still has vision in both eyes! That's a mark of a great physicist (he also did some research into MRI machines blah etc). He knows exactly what he's saying, and he's very good at getting it across to a layman audience, partly because his immense enthsiasm and love for the subject shows through.

    a bit over 30 years ago, I landed myself backwards about six feet playing with around 20KV pulsed HV-DC at unknown current potential(large vehicle/racing ignition coil) and leyden jars.
    it blasted through a hand and left leg, which in turn catapulted me backwards from end of bed to slammed against headboard half vertical, which also knocked over the table and made the junk producing the HV stop. it was likely a good thing it was all on a cheap folding table, but then again, it's the metal legs and outer rim that got me.
    likely a good thing I had very strong legs and was skinny from lots of bicycle riding.

If you spray someone in the face with a water hose for a long time and they drown, did they die from the pressure of the water that prevented them from breathing or was it the volume of the water that ended up in their lungs?

    The secondary of High frequency supplies like Tesla coils tend not to electrocute. The sensitivity of the body to current is frequency dependent with the greatest hazard been around the power frequence range. However the spark is hot and can burn. However the primary of the coil I built was energized with 2000 volts DC and that is DANGEROUS. I made a video on it :)

      Exactly! That is also why you can not RMS values for shock severity determination outside the 30- 300 Hz regulations, as they have been realized with RMS. You can rather use the charge transfer definition and the frequency-charge-duration correction factors to calculate the frequency.

    i remember learning about coulombs (the unit, not the law) by doing the math to calculate the coulombs in a static shock vs a lightning strike. its tempting to want to simplify electricity down a single catchy phrase or sentence to kind of cover all of the safety, but really to be accurate you can't do that. you have to discuss resistance, capacitance, charge, voltage, direct current, alternating current, impedance, and power. and you might as well toss in RF power too because most people don't really understand how RF transmissions work (including RF engineers... its black magic). Will 5G cook you? No, but there are RF transmissions that can cook you. or they may only cook part of you. It's just too complicated to give a simple throw away one size fits all answer.

    I'm so glad I found your reaction video
    All the half truths and misinformation this video had was doing my head in
    30mA is just a known figure we know we have to avoid passing through our chests / hearts etc even though there would be multiple conduction paths thru body
    Just incase there's only one path let's limit it to that
    Regardless of what the voltage ,ambient conditions are and resistance of any paths involved are we need to avoid anything that results in 30mA thru body
    If you are in a pool it doesn't take much voltage applied between two terminals one either side of a swimming pool to make you collapse and drown
    Low voltage but it's still just 30mA across chest
    So 30mA is a constant that doesn't change (much) so is the best UNIT to base it and any safety device on
    Take anything in the vid with a grain of salt - I wouldn't trust my life on anything stated in the original vid and throw proven conventional electrical principles out the window !

      "yes ! ....they did electrocute dead bodies to work it out"
      You can not electrocute dead bodies because:
      1. They are already dead.
      2. They don't have the same properties as living bodies
      3. The tests have been performed on living humans and animals, both in Vitro and in Vivo.
