    Go ahead and look up how many people are killed by electricity every year, it’s fewer then people killed by lightning and almost always involves something much more dangerous then using home electricity in the standard way.

        Only if you don’t differentiate between Current and Static Electricity which are physically distinct phenomenon that aren’t really similar except that electrons are involved.
