Voltage Test
Dude is fried.... So i Have a question. Why does the human body catch fire when electrocuted? And I'm being serious lol |

Re: Voltage Test
for the same reason you need a heat sink and cooling fan on your cpu. By the way; the guy patting out the flames? That's his actual job.

Re: Voltage Test
if you know anything about electronics, something like a resistor, what it does is turns electricity into heat, they turn a small % of a small ammount of current into heat, humans are very very resistive so they turn a LOT of the electricity into heat, and thats a LOT of current, so basically they get hot like the surface of the sun :3

Re: Voltage Test
Stick your fingers in an electrical outlet and find out why it burns. DISCLAIMER...ELECTRICITY IS DANGEROUS, IF YOU DO STICK YOUR FINGERS IN A SOCKET YOU ARE AN IDIOT, I MERELY SUGGESTED IT, SUING ME WILL DO YOU NO GOOD AS I AM AS BROKE AS A TRAMPS SOCK |

Re: Voltage Test
water is not as efficient at conducting electricity as the metal in power lines (actually water is not very conductive at all in pure form unless dealing with higher voltages). Applying more current than something can efficiently conduct causes resistance. The heat is the result of resistance. Since water is hardly conductive at all if you get water to conduct electricity chances are it's going to heat up. That's why you don't light on fire when you stick your finger into a light socket. The amount of electricity is to little.
