Anyone ever try to move the Anode wire in the back of a black and white TV set away so it would quit arcing. I did at age 10 and I was lucky to see age 11. I woke up on the concrete floor about a minute later.

And then there was the time I decided to unstick the toast from the toaster. I'd seen my mother do it a dozen times. Guess I never watched her unplug it first. I was down about 2 minutes that time!
