How is it that some people don't feel electric shock?

I have a friend who can't feel electric shock. At least to a certain degree.

He first became aware when he pushed on a shocking pen. Other people were using it, and getting shocked, and dropping the pen. He held on until the battery died, and said he didn't feel anything. He tried other small shocking toys, and still nothing. On another occasion, he decided to try to grab an electric horse fence. Again, he felt nothing.

He's volunteered to let other individuals use stun guns on him. He got zapped with stun guns ranging anywhere between 50,000 volts, to 800,000 volts, and he said the only thing he felt was more of a burning feeling after a while, but he didn't feel any shock, where as other people who used it dropped to the ground in agonzing pain. He put a 800,000 volt stun gun to his stomach for 30 seconds, and it ended up leaving a bruise, but he didn't feel the shock.

  1. OK I'm almost willing to bet that it is a neurological "problem".  One of my friends has a nerve disorder and he actually can't feel it if you hit him. If it's really a problem or your really curious why don't you have him go to a neurologist and have him checked out. I'm sure they will have fun with this one. Hahaha they can't use an electric chair on him if anything so that should be a good consolation. J/k


  2. His body resistance is great,his/her hands in particullar have

    high resistance.
