omg those police must work in a boring town that they have to make up several bs charges on a minor for sumthing so stupid

@XHyperxNovaX And @all other copsupportersofthisincident, you can see the father shocking himself in the news report to demonstrate (He pulls his hand away, but doesn't seem to be having a god damn heart attack).

no shit electricity can harm you!?

yea especially when a police man fires however many volts into your body, but a small shock from a double a, really! thats not a stun gun or a dangerous weapon

[XHyperxNovaX]

Appearently these Rent-A-Cops know NOTHING about amperage. This has a SLIGHT bigger shock than those prank toys do.

So yes it's one thing to make one as a science project as a high voltage source, but it's quite another to do what the video description says "and attempted to fire it at another student". That could have injured his classmate, or ( if it was applied to the wrong part of his chest) it could have even killed his classmate. Yes indeed, that was very dumb and dangerous, and the kid deserves to spend a night or to in a jail cell for reckless endangerment.

At 300 volts, and a 100uF capacitor, these are more dangerous than police taser. At 300 volts the skin will break down allowing a small current to flow, which (in addition to a mild shock) will heat the skin melting a pinpoint sized hole at the point of contact. Then the resistence is maybe 1000 to 10000 ohms, and the capacitor will discharge faster (though not a complete discharge like with the flash tube), and deliver a fatal current. It can indeed be used to kill a person.
