When testing an electric fence...

LOL! That is EXACTLY why my fence tester is from Home Depot. I would do something exactly like that....

Had an older cousin who thought he can pee on the fence and it would not faze him. Well after he did that, he was sore for a week!

Its a dare that all kids go thru about peeing on the fence or run your hands every so slightly or barely touching it. Done that dare and smart enought not to do it again!

I got zapped by a horse electric fence on my back when I wanted to make a short cut across the pasture by crawling under hte fence. POW! I saw stars!

I never pee'd on the fences, but I just hadda see what the fuss was all about... so I touched one - - ONCE.

I want to say it again, PLEASE read the instructions on electric fences, before plugging them in.
 
I have been knocked to the ground by electric fenses more times than I can count, you would think id know not to touch them.But I have best friends, and best friends like to tell you the fence is off so while you are going through it you get shocked and end up laying on the ground twitching. Or they enjoy pushing you into them. Or pushing you and your bike into them so you get that extra toasty feeling .

Amen. I was ducking in to the horse pasture about 10 years ago and stood up a tad too soon and got a jolt from the fence right to my head. It knocked me out cold until I hit the ground. I was extremely confused and had no idea why my mom was laughing at me. Needless to say she didn't think it was funny once she realized that it fried my brain. I WAS VERY LUCKY and am very leery of electric fences now. Only wish the fence had knocked some sense into me.

Oh THAT's so MEAN of them!

My sister and I were young but stupid by letting our family collie dog into the electric four wire strand to keep our goats in. We called him four times to come in, he would come into the fence, zaaaaaappped! Yes, four times he did that and we all laughed about how funny it was. Lad didn't think it was funny, madily barked at us for laughing at him! After the fifth time we did call him, Lad decided NOPE, I am not going thru that fence anymore! Not for your attentions or treats either!

Smart dog!
 
I thought you were going to say something like "do not pee on it" or something like that.

I am thinking of doing the electric fence thing myself to protect my vegetables from cows, and the like.

Absolutely. My dear sweet uncle had a heart condition, and he went around to do something to the back of their camper and touched the extension cord that was plugged into the house. Stopped his heart completely and he sat down and died. Not the same thing as an ele. fence, and not nearly as powerful probably, but Davaroo is exactly right when he posted the above.
