Well if this doesn't make you respect the awesome power of electricity on a high voltage feed nothing will... It would have been something to see in person though. 8O

If you crank up your speakers, you'll hear a shrill scream at the end of the clip. Clearly, one of the bystanders was excited. :P

You should be OK :wink: Given that the 'plane fuselage is all-metal construction, the Faraday cage effect should keep you on the inside and the electricity on the outside.

However, the increasing use of non-metallic composites in aircraft construction may change all that 8O
