I guess Darwin misses one once in a while.

He missed this kid too - when I was about 5 I took grandma's tweezers and put them in an outlet. Made quite a spark and ruined the tweezers, still not sure how I got extremely lucky and came out unscathed.

When I was a kid, I wanted to learn how toasters worked, so I touched the red wires while the toaster was on. I felt an electrical wave of sorts travel from my hand to my feet. It seemed to take about 2 seconds before I was able to remove my hand.

And then there was the time I wanted to learn how staplers worked...
