Comment on Shock in the Shower (1997)

Comments

The first time a bottle was opened resulted in a discharge approximately 1.5 inches in length from the shampoo to the metallized film cap seal.

The dielectric strength of air is ~3kV/mm. That corresponds to roughly a 114kV potential. It's a good thing these bottles didn't contain something flammable like hairspray.
