Electricity will go the path of least resistance, but you can get some leakage depending on the amount of pressure(aka voltage) in the circuit, etc. Thats all been proven as fact. What usually saves people is poor grounding. You can get shocked, but if you arent well grounded to complete the circuit, you wont get the full charge-see ohms law. Another thing is, electricity tends to flow across the surface of objects, even wiring. If you remember the movie, the green mile, there was the part about the wet sponge on the head to conduct the electricity into the body, and actually shutdown the nervous system, vs not doing so, and BBQing the convict. Thats based on fact, and where they still use sparky, thats how they get the juice in ya. Ive been hit with 220, 110, 12v, and various ignition system charges. Standing on the ground or touching something on the car isnt always enough to allow the full charge to hit you, more of a mist instead of a blast fire hydrant, sort of speak.
Once or twice.
