People actually TEST 9-volt batteries like that? Like, just to see if they work? I only do it because the jolt makes my tongue go pleasurably numb. Pizza is _so_ much better.
*enjoys the thought of everybody staring at this comment*
That sounds very painful. Like the time I stuck a paper clip in between the prongs on a car battery. My hand would twitch randomly for a week, and I still can’t write straight.
i once accidnetly chewed trough a head phone cable, know i know electrcity tastes good, if your togue muscle contarcts it goes back, and where all teh nerves in my teeth are
I have been electrocuted four times by virtue of being stupid enough to touch the metal part of the plug on a lamp while it was halfway in the outlet. Half of the times I did it on purpose cause it made me feel all tingly.
I once tried to get a lightbulb to light up by touching it to the exposed ends of a cut plug. I was having trouble because one of the ends was still wrapped in the plastic, so I decided to chew the plastic off. I completely forgot to unplug the thing from the extension cord I was using to get the electricity to the lightbulb.
Car battery? dunno, but 12V seems a little too weak to actually do anything to your hand… It can however burn the paperclip, lead-acid batteries have crazy current output if shorted. Then again, i do know this guy who says he gets jolted from a car battery… Maybe too much salt in the body.
When I was younger, I liked the taste of metal. One day I put one end of a cell phone charger in my mouth, not realizing that my dad had forgot to unplug it.
I gots horses. I play with the 300-acre electric fence generator that we stuck on our 10 acre pasture all the time. I melted my tongue to it once and shorted it out.
Thankfully I was rather close to the box. My tongue is still kinda forked. Wounds opening and cauderizing instaneously does not taste good.
1. A 12v auto battery will put out enough current (amperage) to weld with, but only for a short time. It is also enough amperage to seriously injure you.
2. The reason 110vac 60Hz is so dangerous is that contact both freezes your muscles and causes the heart to go into fibrillation. In the military, we were told that it is the deadliest voltage.
3. During my military career, we had one individual who regularly tested for 28vdc control voltage with his tongue. The theory was that he had been shocked so many times that he could barely feel the 28vdc.

DEAR GOD! Is the man being paid HUGE sums of money or is he just plain dumb?

I believe this is the first time I’ve seen his eye with a pupil,his teeth too.

Zealous, this comic is basically fantasy version of the Darwin Awards.

Sure you can test it – only once…

Natural Selection.

been there, done that
February 13th, 2007 at 8:09 am
“Hmmm, extremely high voltage… I wonder what that tastes like?”
February 17th, 2007 at 10:23 pm
It tastes like pain and death!
February 22nd, 2007 at 6:40 pm
electricity delicious?
thats what Kaolla Su from Love Hina anime would say…
February 23rd, 2007 at 8:23 pm
tried it with a handcrank generator light socket (young and stupid, obviously) couldn’t taste for a week
February 26th, 2007 at 2:55 pm
I laughed so hard at Rogue Psyker’s comment, oh god!
February 26th, 2007 at 10:05 pm
oh noes! now he has to start over with growing eyebrows and a moustache again! 0__0 hehe i’m glad i’ve never been shocked that badly.
March 21st, 2007 at 3:40 pm
I find this hilarious, it’s the best one coming from the beginning.

Rogue Psyker- xD
April 4th, 2007 at 7:31 pm
I think he’s being paid quite large sums of money to BE stupid…why else could he afford to make all that he does (see later comics)?

Also he’s a cartoon.

Ah, but fire tastes like bacon!!!
(reference to an obscure sprite comic, don’t go thinking I’m crazy or anything… o.o; )

Ansem Retort. And you are worng, fire merely tastes of AGONY.

Maybe that’s what’s wrong with me?

yes. yes it is.

Ouch! Can’t believe he did that!

WAIT!?????? Biff’s a cartoon???? Not an incredibly rubber, immortal, and insane man whose biography is written in The Book of Biff.

TomCC: it’s not the voltage that kills you, it’s the amperage.

his eyes…..they are open!
tis a holy miracle!
April 25th, 2008 at 9:44 pm
Wow, I’ve done that. Trying to rework the wiring of the TV and peripherals and didn’t have an extra hand for a 5v adapter. I saw blue for a while.
May 16th, 2008 at 1:59 am
i plan on never doing that having touch mains voltages pretty much everyday for the last few years i’d much rather keep it away from my mouth.

Our dog once bit an electrical wire. It took a piece out of his tongue, poor puppy.
June 23rd, 2008 at 2:37 pm
Strangely enough, we have a dog who chews on wires. But she has never been damaged by them… even when they were plugged in.

omg, this is classic

one…two…ZZZZZZAAAP, one guess to what movie reference this is
December 8th, 2008 at 9:04 pm
eyebrows gone, teeth and eyes showing, who wants to give Biff CPR?
February 11th, 2009 at 8:25 pm
Movie reference?
One…Two…ZZZZZZAAAP?
Jurassic Park.

If he checks his mains electrics daily by eating them, that would explain Biff’s lack of hair and the vast, crackling eyebrows.
February 20th, 2010 at 7:45 am
H my god biff actually has eyes!!!!
