Floating voltages

I apologise for the lamentable ignorance of my earlier comment and thank Mr Harvey for elucidating me on floating voltages.

Bunch of lying blackguards

The two officers holding him as he gets tased are holding his naked arms, and are not wearing insulating gloves. If 50.000 V were actually going through his body both escorting officers would be visibly affected. They're not.

The main effect of a taser is neuro-muscular disability, leaving the victim unable to exercise normal control over his or her muscles. Depending on the duration of the electrocution and the subject's size and fitness, the results can last from fifteen seconds up to a few minutes. What the Chief constable would not be able to do after being tased is turn around and walk away, as he does in the video.

I'm sorry to say this, but the North Wales Police are trying to take us for a ride.
