Yep, about a month ago when I was down at his place picking up my 300. We walked into his shop to look at a car he was working on that had a MSD ignition on it. Wollfen said aye mate grab hold of that wire for a bit. I said no problem bud as he walked around to get in the car. So I'm holding the wire & looking where it go's and about the time I see the other end is attached to the MSD coil that has a sticker on it that says 40000 VOLTS he turns the key & I start dancing. Yelling , smoke comming from my ears, lighting bolts comming out of my hands & flying all over his shop. Wollfen gets out of the car & says thanks mate. I guess the coil is good after all. The charge burned a small hole in my finger where it entered me. I felt it up in my chest & my heart rate was clearly higher & I was winded. My finger still has the hole in it & is still sore to the touch.

Did Wolfen have V shaped eyebrows at that precise moment?
 
Bob, just remember this the next time you bring him a car to work on. The poor man needs a rest.
 
A Shocking story for sure !!!!

Funny you should post that pic. It reminds me of what truly happened. Bob didn't hold the wire with his hand, but I did offer some insulated pliers, Bobs response was, "Insulated? What do I need insulated grips for?" And yes, I used the jumper leads to get his heart started again in the aftermath.

TRANSLATION: Bob had not paid me yet so I had no choice but to revive him
 
I remember loading condensers in auto shop in high school.....then dropping them in guys pockets etc...
 
Reminds me of the time I tried to remove the test lead for the Sun Machine from a G.M. H.E.I. system and forgot to turn the car off.
