Subj: Could a fart that causes butthair to scuff together generate enough
of
an electrostatic charge to create an electrical shock?
a) a fair amount of butthair would be involved.
b) the electrical shock would just have to be enough to register in nerve
endings as a shock... not necessarily enough to blast someone across the
room.
also, are there any energy applications to this phenomenon if it exists?
Cheers!
