Seriously... stuck my finger in a light bulb socket when I was 3. Haven't had the mind (or lack thereof) to do it again.
:p

Re: Current from an electrical socket?
This site will answer your question.
http://users.pandora.be/worldstandards/electricity.htm#trick
Although the US runs at 120volts most new homes now have 240volts split between two wires.
My Dads an electrician and I have had more shocks than I can count(might explain a few things)
As for stun guns,they give all their volts at once in a short sharp shock but at very low amps, a lot of pressure but very low intensity.
