On the farm Dad had a fence charger and I got it into my head one day to hook it up the bird dog pen fence. Got that done but it didn’t seem to be electrify the fence. Turned it off and waited till he got home to find out just what I did wrong. Dad and I went to where I had attached the wire to the fence after turning the charger on.(you can hear them so we knew it was working) Dad took the wire loose and said here hold this. So I did. For about 3 jolts! When Mom asked why it didn’t get him Dad said it was because he was wearing boots with rubber soles.
Yee-OWCH!! I did that to myself as a kid burning trash on the farm in the burn barrel. Saw what looked to be a wire coat hanger in the fire and just reached in to grab it…………
