Ohh. Come on. You just get electrocuted with the 220V line. It's not a
big deal if you don=92t keep your fingers on the line for a long time =
(and
you didn=B4t). It happened to me a lot of times, since I was a little =
boy.
The only important thing is to have protection in your house and you
will note that every time it happened to you, you will feel "recharged"

From my cousin Martin:

Russell,

In late 1970's at NZ Steel, story goes that an electrician walked out of
a contactor room and told a work-mate "I've just got a shock off a
bus-bar, I think I'll sit down and rest for a few minutes". Half an hour
later, his mates found him dead, slumped in a chair in their workshop.
We were told "make sure someone stays with a casualty, and keep checking
level of consciousness (ie keep them talking, and if they stop, do
something!).
