The static electric charge that you find so funny to shock someone with can get as high as 25000 volts. Compare this with 110 volts at your wall outlet.
Your skin has approximately 20000 ohms of resistance.
Analysis: That is why you don't die of electrocution from static electricity.
It is really all about the math now isn't it.

Before you comment remember one thing. The vast majority of what I say are my own personal thoughts and insites. Though the norm for a reporter is to back up what he says with data and info I am not a reporter nor a pundit. I am a plain old American having my say..........
