Shocking!

I keep getting electric shocks! I figure that I’ve either developed the worlds worst superpower (what’s the point of having a power that only hurts you?) or it could be summat to do with the seat material of this new Actros. I’ve given up my smart EE lookalike sportswear so it can’t be that! Every bloody time I climb out I get a belt through a finger tip or through the top of my head from the doorframe. Obviously this provides lots of amusement to witnesses but is starting to wear a bit thin with me.

Obviously I’m awaiting the ■■■■ taking replies :smiley: but has anyone else had this, and if so how the hell do you stop it? I await your sympathetic replies. :smiley:

Yours Electroman.

■■■■ taking replies? Guilty as ‘charged’.

Danger Danger High Voltage :laughing: :laughing:

Has some bright spark mentioned static? Seems weird that you get the belt when you move out of seat? Does the same happen when you are seated and driving?

Haha-thats a tune indeed Tango. Nice chick in the video too-I would like to meter.

Have you changed your footwear recently?

I keep getting shocks but only when I wear a particular pair of boots, gets me every time too- really annoying! :imp:

My old garage foreman back in the 60’s could point his finger at a cars door handle and we could see the electricity jumping across the gap, quite a party trick really!

Seriously■■?

Anyhoo, I would suggest that the combination of polyester trousers, your fat arse and an uncomfortable Actros seat are the route cause of your “shocking” experience! :open_mouth:

Try to harness the energy you’re creating then sell it on the open market. You could make a fortune!!

Bacon butty-check out the video .Electric six Danger,High voltage.

You cant tell me you wouldn’t…

Nah, same boots. Sometimes I drive in them, sometimes just my socks (well, clothes as well) but it makes no difference.

Remember them rubber strips hanging off the back of cars and touching the floor that were standard in the 90s,try summat like that lecky legs :laughing:

Must be two different videos. The one in the vid I’ve just seen was some mad old bag!

Just when I get out. I’m figuring static just like if you rub a balloon against your hair and it’ll stick to a wall (I really should get out more :blush: ). It’s not a new thing with me tbh, i get belts off most cars when I get out of them and I can kill a wristwatch within a week, so I tend to shut car doors using just the glass and I always sneak up behind the GF and touch her ear but the result is a big spark, a crack and she doesn’t feel it but it hurts me like hell.

I may try one of them earthing strips from Halfrauds.

I love a bird that flashes her ■■■■…

He’s right, this definitely stops it, you can get them from most car part shops mate

Green & yellow laces :wink:

Was trying to think of a comeback for that, but it was very funny so I’ll leave it.

For the time being… :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:
