    Do different humans react to electrical shocks differently? I’ve had the “shit shocked out of me” 115V many times and it’s always felt like…

    “Oh a little tingle. Neat. Well I hear your heart can explode so maybe I won’t do that again”

      It really depends on the amperage coming over the circuit. Volts times amps is watts, usually limited by breaker. If you’re part of the circuit and there’s a large resistor in front causing the device to only draw a few milliamp then yeah, minor tingle. If you’re directly on the main with a say 20A breaker then it’ll be heck of a shock / arc when the circuit is shorted.
