Okay Boyd,
A couple questions though.... WHY did you do that? was it one of those, 'Gee, a couple of my buddies said that peeing on a fence hurt real bad... let me just check it out..."? or was it just an issue of random out-door peeing in an un-advisable location? Also, did you go to the doctor? One time we set up a low fence around our garden to keep the groundhogs out (yeah right)... anyway, it obviously wasn't helping, so I touched it, to see if it was even going to shock them at all.. All I could feel was a little Bzzz Bzzzz Bzzz and I was like "no way that's enough juice to do ANYTHING!" so my husband (who should have known better) said, "Gee hon, maybe it's because you're wearing shoes." So I took my shoes off in the dewy grass, reached down again, grabbed the wire, and flew backwards onto the ground. He had a really hard time not laughing, but since i was crying so much, he mostly managed. It hurt so BAD, and that was just my arm..... I can't imagine that kind of shock to your... nether region.....

I think I was 11 or so and did it on a dare. Us guys were always trying to outdo everyone on who could take the most pain. Unfortunately I won that year and nobody tried to top my feat.

When we put a weed burner charger on in the next couple of years My buddy did it on accident. He of course had to go to the docs.​

Not just boys! My one-yr younger sis and I were rather competitive. One day I dared her to touch the electric fence, saying I bet it's not even on. She grabs it with her whole hand, nothing happens. Then she looks me dead in the eye - your turn! That's when I learned about on/off current in electric fences. The next thing I remember is staring into the blue sky, wondering what happened with my sis anxiously asking "are you OK? are you OK?"
We get along MUCH better now that we're all grown up.

This same thing happened to me recently! Really random. Except I didn't slip in the snow, I was just walking fast and somehow my wedding ring got caught on a piece of the door. My ring isn't that expensive (got married at 19...) and it bent the ring!

I've got one thats almost as funny! My DH asked if I would make him a bowl of popcorn (we have an airpopper) No problem, I get up and start the popcorn. As the popcorn is popping a kernel hits the bottom of the bowl and proceeds to go directly up my nose! yes up my nose and it blistered the whole inside of my nose, talk about pain! I was screaming and my DH wouldnt believe me and couldnt figure out what was wrong until I blew my nose and a kernel shot out. Then two days later I had to explain to the allergist who was looking up my nose that it was really from a popcorn kernel. I still dont think he believes me

and I still wont make my Dh popcorn and I bet Boyd doesnt pee on fences anymore
