Hi George,

Don't even think about trying it, I'm serious! Besides possibly fatal
results to yourself or anyone within conductivity range, it is illegal to
use without being a licensed and trained professional.

Think of two thousand electric eels encasing your body and your muscles will
tense and not even give you a chance to swim or react!
It also stuns the fish, but maybe can incapacitate you and will have no
chance to react at all.
