Putting Metal in an Outlet

[OnnomonnomonnO]

[04211michael]

[sheltv100]

It will either short out the outlet or it will short you out.

ya knew better

[marnicatawio]

haha nice name cheesebubbles

[Bassboostz]

Your voice shorted out my ears.

[letseeitplease]

that guy should not have done that, because stephen said so

[Duvmasta]

I did that. An OCD thing...

[nicka727]

At my high school in my senior year, I put metal in the socket with a notebook wire and sparks flew.

[elgavilan2000]

At least these kids aren't European.  You think 120 volts hurts...

[Antireign]

It can't shock you because it's easier for the current to go through the staple then through the person. The neutral is a direct path to ground with far less resistance than the the man holding it, so why would the current go through the man when it has a perfectly good low resistance path to ground through the staple?

Still a dumb thing to do though. Never know what could happen.

[anorwood84]

Well if the staple hits the hot side of the outlet first while hes holding onto it, then he will get shocked.

[Antireign]

If he's grounded and only hits the hot side of it, then anorwood84 is right, he'll definately be shocked. One day this will happen and he'll realize his stupidity.

I think I've found the next candidates for the Darwin Awards!

[CheeseBubbles]

lol

[trucksoner]

if he accidentally puts it in the small (negative) slot first, he could actually die

[MrWilliamSandoval]

@trucksoner

no. the most output is 120 volts. a taser is 50,000 and that can't kill you.

[trucksoner]

@MrWilliamSandoval 120 volts certainly can kill you. the difference is the available amperage. the 15 amperes (or 20 if it's an american kitchen outlet) available in a household outlet is much greater than that available from a taser. also, a taser is DC electricity, which is less likely to stop your heart than AC (what a house has)

so yeah, a 120 volt outlet kills you sometimes (if you're grounded enough to carry at least 50 milliamps through you)

basically, the amps kill, not the volts

[steelwheelz22]

omg nick you are stupid!! haha jkjk umm yea this si robyn i no you no cuz i told you i was writing a comment so yea umm dont do tht again!!! haha umm miss you and hope to see ya soon luv ya!!  .♥.♥.robynn.♥.♥.

[radudman]

love you too!!!!

.♥.♥.radudman.♥.♥.

LOLOLOLOL

[denelson83]

Stupid idiot... ¬_¬

[radudman]

he wouldn't even feel a shock, because the current goes through the metal , not his body, but if he held one half of it in each hand, then he would most likely go into ventricular vibrilation and die.

[CheeseBubbles]

one day he ended up melting notebookwire with that outlet. he got suspended, lol

[AnasheedCast]

@radudman he wouldn't die. 110 volts is nothing. It will just shock you. Try doing it with the UK's 240V.

[CricketboyStudios]

This one is 110 volts.

[GaxAngel]

LOL you're lucky you didn't die.

Whats the power supple in volts in the US?

[CheeseBubbles]

you can die from our outlets, i have gotten shocked by the bare wires that go to the outlets.

i dont even know what the power supple is.

[CricketboyStudios]

110-210 Volts 15 Amps, yes it can easily kill you, if you get it right.

[Michaelas11]

If you're wet it'll kill you.

[phillies4100]

@GaxAngel Deathly.

[myryonspoof]

@GaxAngel 120 volts, max 12 amps.
