This reminds me of a "hilarious" conversation I had one time when I was in the casualty ward of the local hospital.
"So there I was at home and I cut through an electrical cable with some scissors."
"And you came to A&E because you got shocked?"
"Well I was shocked, yes. I didn't expect the cable to be live, there was a big bang and all the lights went off"
"OK you've had an electric shock?"
"No I was surprised, I was not electrocuted"
"So why are you here ..?"
(Paranoid partner made me go, though I was certain I was fine. Had some fluid taken from my spine; apparently electric shocks can cause "stuff to break down" and they were gonna use the fluid to confirm whether I'd been hit by electricity or not.)
