2. Well shooting electricity toward a heart is never a good idea
Edited on Wed Oct-21-09 11:02 AM by no limit
some people have different reactions to electric shock than others. 99% of people can take a 50,000V shock from one of those without any serious health effects; but in a small percentage the heart can go in to fibrillation at a much lower voltage than what most people would need. And the closer to the heart you shoot the higher this risk becomes.
