A current of 50mA (barely enough
to make a low wattage lamp even glow) is sufficient
to send your heart into a state called “ventricular
fibrillation”. where the heart muscles are all
working out of synchronization with each other.
Little or no blood is pumped, and DEATH, is within
about 3 minutes unless help is immediately at
hand. If this happens, it is possible that with
external heart massage that it might re-start,
and occasionally it might even re-start by itself
- rare, but it can happen. The result of fatal
electrocution is that you will no longer be able
to enjoy the hi-fi that you have spent so much
time and money putting together, and all other
earthly activities are similarly curtailed.
