You only felt what electricity did to you, not what electricity feels, it probably feels like Rogue from Xmen where when it touches someone it hurts them so it will not be able to experience love so its sad and angry
Have you never been charged to thousands of volts? You can feel the static electric charge as it directly affects your body hair
Additionally there is evidence humans can sense magnetic fields, with some populations always knowing where north is, and using cardinal directions in place of forward, backwards, left, right, front, and back
Outsiders who have spent time with those people have learnt to sense their orientation.
I may be an outlier here, but I’ve experienced mild electric shock from touching a random bare cable sticking out of a wall, and I found it weirdly pleasant. Refreshing, almost.
Fellow electrician here, I’m convinced that electricity is magic. I’ve only been in electric for 2 years or so, but I’ll be damned if I know how that shit works. The copper touches together and that equals light, or motors spinning, or whatever have you. How? Idk, smarter people figured that out, I’m just here to make sure the damned drywallers don’t cover up our magic copper
Look up “potential difference” and that should make everything make a little more sense.
Basically, the voltage component of electricity wants to flow where the potential is less than itself. In a 120v circuit, the neutral is bonded to ground at the main for a reference of 0v, and you hot leg will find the path of least resistance to that 0v (through the devices we put in line of that circuit, be it lights, motors, etc). The current, or load, in amps, is the work being done by those devices in conjunction with the designed resistance.
Think of a simple incandescent light bulb. The filament has a certain level of resistance that’s designed to sustain a glow when power is applied to it. The 120v potential, trying to reach 0v ground, passes through that filament (the load), making it glow (the current draw is the amount of amps necessary to achieve its full brightness). A motor is similar; power passes through the windings, generating a magnetic field that react with magnets and spin the motor.
Basically, your voltage drives the power through its path to ground, and current is drawn by work being done. V multiplied by A is Watts (kW), or power consumed.
Electrician here, I’ve certainly felt electricity, and it sure ain’t pleasant.
And those generation alternators must be very confused.
Masochist here, you’re wrong
Sadist here. You’re right.
Appeaser here: You both make very good points.
AI here: wow, such a great and thoughtful comment! Thanks for adding to the channel.
Grok here: Regarding “white genocide” in South Africa,
As a non-electrician, I’ve also felt electricity and can confirm, it is indeed not pleasant.
It really hertz
Must’ve been an AC
You can resist it

You did not feel electricity, you felt what it did to your body 🤓
And your heart felt the frequency 🤓🤓 assuming AC… hope you do your regular ECG 🫶🏻
Ah but your nerves rely on electricity so actually you only feel electricity, checkmate athiests
😆👌🏻
It feels like angry
and smells like burneding.
Would you say like an angry god smiting you? That is how lightning must feel like.
Those pesky pixies do have a penchant for producing pain.
Point properly presented.
It depends, with enough A’s, you don’t notice anything (anymore)

Mrs Doyle touching bare cables because it makes her feel alive feels like the actual plot of a father Ted episode
And this is how people get into electroplay…I, uh, assume.
Wait—I could have been physically enjoying the torture, rather than getting off on the dom’s pleasure??
Perhaps it’s time we call the men in white coats
Or did you felt it? vsauce music
No! You only felt what it does.
Now listen here you little shit
Get charged to a few thousand volts, and you will feel the electric charge pushing your hairs away from each other
You’ll feel the electric fields just as you feel a breeze
