10KV to fire magnetron in counter battery radar. Took six marines to stop
me from burying my screw driver in the chest of the asshole that thought it
would be cute to push the radiate button.

I remember hearing the story of an Air Force tech working on a 30' radar
dish. For some dumb reason, someone energized it and promptly microwaved
him to death.

Some of these stories are hair rasing... and I'm too much of a weenie to
stick my tongue on a 9V battery...

Seems to go along well with "keep one hand in your back pocket" and
"don't work on this stuff while standing in a puddle of water".

When I am around high voltages, I practice the "two-hand rule" - I keep both
hands in my pockets and don't touch anything.
