I have seen it all my friends. I have seen earthquakes. I have seen the Vatican. I have ever seen my Junior years English teacher fall down the stairs in high school. But today, I learned the craziest.
Remember when you were a kid and in the winter, you'd drag your socks across the carpet for five minutes and then tap your little sister, sending a nice little stream of electricity her way? Yea, I barely ever did it, but I guess in the '50's or something, it may have been interesting. And it was only slightly annoying, not a big bother, just enough for little sis to say, "Mom! Your son is being quite the rabblerouser."
Frank Clewer, from Warrnambool, Australia knows what I am talking about. Apparently, one shouldn't wear an all nylon jacket and wool shirt, especially not to a job interview.
As Clewer found out, wearing that posh ensemble was enough to set carpet aflame.
Yes, thats right. He produced enough electricity (some 40,000 volts) to scorch a carpet and melt a piece of plastic as he went to his car.
Which brings me to my only question: Who wears a nylon suit and wool shirt anymore?
