Reminds me of a microwave in Africa, came in from a long flight and had to heat my tea left for me in the apartment, turned on the microwave and then for some reason touched the oven when it was on and got an almighty tingle. Later after switching off the power found the muperts hadn't installed the earth wire in the socket and thus the microwave used me as one instead. Certainly woke me out of my jetlag.
