The worst shock I ever received was from a high power, high voltage DC power

Same here - lower voltage and amperage - 10Kv at about an amp.

Started at my right wrist and out through my finger tips.

What's funny is that every once in a while, the hand feels like it's
twitching really fast, but you can't see it. Another interesting side
effect is that it never seems to warm up - it always feels like it's
cold, but it's not.

Weird.


I saw a magician (I think it was the Mindfreak guy) get hit with
20,000,000 volts, but they never said how many amps.
