In all of my stupidity I agreed to let my friends shock my testicles with a cattle prod on film. With my limited knowledge of these kinds of devices I'm wondering two things: 1.) How much this is going to hurt and 2.) If there's potential for permenant damge. If there'll be some kind of permenant damage than I want no part of it. I've been told that it's only 8 volts, which strikes me as odd because I'd figure that it's be more like 10 to 20 thousand volts. Anyone have any advice for me, as far as whether or not this is a potentially life-threatening venture? Particularily people who have knowledge about cattle prods.
