So it takes power, and probably energy, i.e. power times time to do work and
certainly to kill someone.
Think about lightning. Lightning has millions (10^6) of amperes of
current, several millions of volts of voltage, (sometimes measuring
650 Coulumbs of charge) ... still there are quite a lot of people who
turn up alive even after being hit by lightning. I think that is
becoz of the fraction of a second the charge passes through the body
of the person.
regds,
Aditya
