We had a board setup in our Auto Shop in high school that actually had a complete ignition setup on it. On the first day of the newbie's class, it would be sitting at the front of the class on one big table. the whole thing was hooked up and worked- battery and all. It had a HUGE "Do Not Touch" sign on it. Of course, the person sitting in that seat would invariably touch it at one point in time. (before knowing how it worked)

There was a nice little **** on the dizzy so that you could turn it manually. Well, when you turned it it did it's thing, and the spark plug wire hooked to a terminal that ran through the board to a wire that was connected to the bottom of this person's metal chair!!!

Hehehe... I got a kick out of that every year. (I was a TA after freshman year.) Especially since I was that stupid person the first year!!!

 

That's even better than setting a tack on someone's chair.

 

Holy hell, people. I didn't realize that many people are so dumb! Engine off, keys out, battery disconnected. That's how I do it. It's really not that difficult.

...Unless you enjoy that 1000+ degree feeling rushing through your body.

You can never predict the physical repercussions later on in life for a dumb thing like that.

 

hahahaaaa!!! i'm sitting here laughing out loud and everyone is looking at me like what the hell is wrong with him!

 

Hey Quagmire---
Ever see the movie "One flew over the kuckoo's nest"?
In it, Jack Nicholson had the quote of the 1970's decade shortly after receiving a round of punitive electro-shock "therapy":
"Next woman who takes me on--- Randall P. McMurphy, the 10,000-watt psychopath--- she's gonna light up like a pinball machine and pay off in silver dollars!"
Which means (looking on the bright side) that since you are now fully charged you should be able to make naked chicks levitate.
So bring 'em on, happy landings and enjoy the ride!!

 

Good thing you didn't quit breathing, as sometimes happens--- cuz if you happen to be ugly NOBODY is gonna give you mouth-to-mouth...
