Shocking
When I was about 5 or 6 I decided it would be interesting to take out the bulb from a lamp,insert finger and turn on the power.
I got a fizzy crackling sound, like those that you hear in cartoons when someone gets electrocuted, and a feeling like when you hit your elbow and your arm goes all numb.
That was all.

My mother was in the other room and didn't even notice!

Although, even now I wonder whether something like Jacob's Ladder is going on and that I actually died at that moment and all my life from then up to now is just a hallucination in my brian as it shuts itself down and none of this world is actually real.

the exact same thing happened to me
right down to the smallest detail.

I had never considered the fact that I had infact died, but now that you mention it, i have been alot less opaque than usual. :/

You're
not the only one - and I think I was older at the time.
I also ended up as an electrical engineer....
