Obstacle course events that include electric shocks — where participants pay to be electrocuted in mud pits — have become a popular way for people to prove toughness, with 10,000-volt live wires leaving adults visibly convulsing.
"Hey guys, Danny here from Mario's Team, and you're looking at footage from a Tough Mudder run. Now in it, there's an obstacle where people have to run through this field where there's wires hanging down with electricity running through the wires, and apparently it has like 10,000 volts, which is a lot. So you can see as soon as some of these guys touch those wires, their bodies just like give out, because they're basically just like tasing themselves. So I don't know how much these things cost, but my question is, what's the most you'd pay to do something this dumb?"
