We have hotwires for cows; they're of varying power. The one we use around the home yard is pretty powerful, puts out like 10kV because it's used to run about 2 miles of crossfences.

One day I was crossing a fence in the pens, being careful to not touch the wires with my skin (you can step on the wires just fine and lever yourself around on the top of a fencepost). So as I swing my leg over, my foot slips, and I land with my nuts on the top wire. Now, it's also barbwire, so besides getting my nuts shocked as I land on the wire, I can't pull myself off the wire because the barbs are in my pants and skin. I managed to kinda roll off the fence, getting jolted every second or so, and when I fall the crotch of my pants rip out and the shocks finally end.

Suffice to say, a fence that keeps cows inside is a little bit much to take when you have electrified barbs stuck in your balls and you can't pull away.

So that's my story about getting my testicles fried on a beautiful country day. Fairly sure whatever these students experienced wasn't a patch on my lovely fence-hop.
