Pacemaker No-No!

So I learned that this is called a Van de Graaff Generator.

It generates very high voltage electricity.

The guy setting it up asks me:

Do you have a pacemaker?

I respond in the negative and ask what’s the danger zone on this thing.

He says:

You probably wouldn’t want to get within 10 feet of this!

Good to know. ;-)
