Today, I encountered a near-death experience. Now, I look back thinking how lucky I was.

At school, I was on the computer, when it switched off randomly. I thought I could fix it, so I unplugged the computer, and fiddled with the wires. I turned it back on and it still wouldn't work. I tried the wires again, then I moved the voltage switch. A large spark came from the computer, I stumbled back and fell down, and the computer started to smoke a bit. I got such a shock, I've been thinking about it all day, and how close I was to death.

Something like that happened to me once the cable at the back of my tv came out, and i thought oh great gotta put it back in so i went to put it back in, but i should have turned the telly off but i left it on so i put the cable close to the insertion and then i could see little blue sparks appearing and got a small electric shock :/ turned the tv off straight away :/

u dont die, you have to have the pc's off, and plus, its the power supply which you blew :p and prob some of the mother board :p. So it isnt faital if you do it, it may be if you do it when the pc is on tho .... never tryed it ....
