On one occasion I was Zapped 1-time by an electric fence which was not even connected to the charger. We had a spring loaded insulated handle for use as a gap through one. I was driving the old Two-Cylinder John Deere through & had stopped & taken down the gap, just dropping it on the ground. As it was on the side away from the charger I thought it would be easier to just grab the wire as it left the post & follow it out, rather than lean over to pick up the handle. Little did I realize at that point in time that wire could act as a capacitor & it gave me one fierce jolt as it discharged. The ground was extremely dry so it apparently had not made sufficient contact to ground, But I Did.
