No. Because your Body-Heart would get listed as being in red "X" condition.

The car would just be a red "/", though.

I say fake from the way he's spreading his finger across the terminals.

Anyhow, it only takes an amp to cause a serious burn. Car batteries contain hundreds.

I've been burned by shorted electrical wiring to a car battery. This video is total BS and no you should never play around with lots of amps even if it's only 12v.
