I have seen solid streams hit the ground just like from a hose without a

Sorry - nope.

Even under high pressure/large volume, like a deluge gun you see on
top of some tower and ladder systems, the stream isn't strong enough
to resist air pressure and breaks up almost immediately.

Now, having said that, it is possible if you crank up to super high
voltage AND current, but even then it's problematic.


I know from experience that the electric fence systems used for horse
paddocks and pastures is upwards of 5000 volts or more. Very little current
obviously, but enough to catch your attention if you happen to accidently
touch it.

I, for one, am not interested in testing the **** on it theory.
