Not me. I have older brothers. I knew better when one of them was laughing way too much while telling about getting a cousin to do it.
 
My niece has had real trust issues with me ever since the day I told her the fence was off and it was on . It wasn't intended either.
Renter was over one day with a little one and he had a snow suit on and got hung up on the electric fence fortunately it was off but later i was telling his grandmother about it and I told her it would have been even funnier if the fence was on. I don't remember the exact words she used but I remember the tone and don't mess with grandma's kids.
 
Never did that. But first remembered trip to dads sisters dairy farm. About 4 or 5. Jumped out of th 61 Chrysler, ran to the fence barefoot, grabbed hold of wire with both hands standing in wet grass to see the calves. Dad put a foot in my chest to get me loose. Half hour or so after unpacking car, went to the barn to see uncle and 30 year older cousin. Again barefoot, steeped in warm pie. Wiped it off, then on to barn. Walked in just in time to see my cousin Orrin insert his arm to ths shoulder to try and turn a calf. Wonderful experience for a young city boy.
 
But does it really work?

Never tried it, ain't gonna try it!

Didn't Myth Busters do an episode on that? Best I remember they found what appears to be a stream is actually moving drops that don't actually connect, so no continuity.

Any volunteers? LOL
 
From personal experience, I can tell you unequivocally the Mythbusters were wrong!

That tops my list of things in life you do only once.
 
We had one of those electric fencers with a weed cutter, illegal now. was peeing next to the fence got a good zap >LOL found the wooden fence post was almost burnt in half. wire got knocked off insulator and was tight against post.
 
Neighbor boy told me that as a youngster he was watching his uncle work on a small air cooled engine and was having trouble getting it to run right and the uncle said,"===== on the SOB!" Little boy complied with the request with an alarming response.
 
We had horses and electric fences, we had a registered Paso Fino Stallion and two Paso Fino mares as well as 4 or 5 grade mares. We found out 1/2 Paso Fino foals weren't worth a whole lot and decided we weren't going to let the grade mares get bred anymore. One of the mares comes into heat and backs herself up to the gate to the stud's pen and he decides he'd oblige her through the fence. Well on of them musta hit the hot wire 'cause one of them squealed, sounded just like a hog. The mare shot out from under the stud, he rolled over backwards and landed on his back with all four hooves up. He gets up and walks around to the other side of the barn where he can't see any of the other horses and stood there all afternoon with his head shaking back and forth.
 
Had a bull went to breed a cow at the same time a calf pulled in for lunch. When the bull jumped he pushed the cow forward and the calf backed into the electric fence. The bull had a strange look on his face. I think he was careful after that I not sure if she settled but I'm sure the bull thought that was the hottest cow in the bunch. By the way it was a new Zealand style fencer I have had it burn trees in half.
Then there is the story about a cop noticed an older couple having fun behind the bar and he was surprised how active they were. Later he had a word with the old man saying I hope I can do that when I get your age . The old man replied we normally aren't that way what happened was it was our anniversary and we went where we first did it but back then that damm electric fence wasn't there!
 
I have one of the New Zealand style chargers that powers a strand that goes around the entire farm. It is in the basement of the bank barn. The hot wire runs along the rock wall out to the first pasture fence. The drive way is on the level above the wall. Last Christmas I was with my brothers out by the barn. We were looking in the ground floor for some boards. My youngest brother had to Pee. He walked around the corner of the barn and peed over the side of the rock wall. HE "found" the hot wire real soon. LOL HE screamed so load the women heard him in the house. LOL My other brother and I where laughing so hard we could not have helped him at all. My younger brother told me he felt it for several days.
