Only if you are outside using it during an electrical storm and get struck by lightning
Amazingly, nobody was electrocuted and Franklin became convinced and was able to convince scientists that lighting was a electrical discharge.
Invented by Ben Franklin lighting rods are just what they sound like they are rods on a roof to take lighting instead of it hitting a house and burning it down.
Electric shock is to electrocuted as burned is to cremated. Electric shock is the same as electrocuted, except that electrocuted has actually induced death; to kill by electric shock.
Thunderstorms actually produce lightning and the thunder is from lightning crashing and hitting something
Yes
Over 3,000 people are killed by household items , either being electrocuted by power tools or lighting equipment or in house fires.
Neila was almost electrocuted when her crock pot shorted out.
Hitting your hand against the wall would not cause you to get electrocuted. If you feel a sudden jolt or shock when touching a wall, it may be due to static electricity buildup on your body, especially in dry conditions. This can create a temporary imbalance in charge resulting in a small discharge when you touch a conductor like a wall.
