I should be! Hahahaha
Man @ktkundy and @TheCharneco you both got super lucky lol.
Iāve had oops moment twice.
Once when I had my Apple Earbuds in my hoodie which I was gonna wash. I didnāt realize they were in the hoodie since I have hoodie pockets empty and the earbuds went through a full cycle in washer and dryer. I realized I was missing them AFTER the dryer cycle was done and was gonna watch a video 
.
The second time as when I didnāt realize I had my flash drive in my pantsā pocket and they went through the same full cycle in washer and dryer. Glad the earbuds and flash drive survived.
My mom had an oops moment once when she decided to put my pants in washer without letting me know. She missed the same flash drive in the pocket (I donāt know how). This time though, the flash drive broke in dryer (Rest in Pieces). Good thing I never have anything in the flash drive that I donāt on my laptop

Damn I was shocked once when I was kid and apparently kinda dumb because I put a pen straight in the plug. Was shocked a little and dropped the pen and just felt that pain in my hand. Good thing nothing happened
Mac is a power bank now!

Dont joke!
All the time now I get static shocks from stuff, and sometimes you can hear the crack and they bloody hurt.
@MacBlank I got one better
When doing electrical work I went to install a switch, I shut the breakers off and proceeded to wire up the switchā¦ I should have double checked for no power with my meter but didnāt. My finger slips across the neutral and hot and BAM I was stuck for a good 10 to 15 seconds before I somehow managed to break the connection.
After it happened I realized a few things:
-
My pliars flew out of my hand like a rocket
-
My finger was blown open and part of it instantly cauterized
-
Iām freaking lucky to be alive
-
I shut the building down
An 1/8th of an amp can kill a person and here I had over 400 amps go through me in one hand across my heart and out the other hand. I blew the 400 amp main, shutting the whole building down. I didnāt go to the hospital right away, but it took like 3 days before by body reacted to that and started shutting down. I spent the next week in the hospital and after that I became super cautious about electricity.

Always call a professional. If you are going to have expose wires try to tape at least one with electrical tape. They sale the test pens that will make a lot easier to check if the wires are hot. And never cut 2 wires at the same time if you havenāt test them.

Check it if there is voltage!
There are tools to do so.
You might know many such electrical shocks may lead to heart problems at last.
Indeed : NEVER cut 2 wires at the same time.
NEVER!
Boa, You were so lucky
You should thank Our Lord daily still being alive!
Iām sorry but that was my job, I was an electrician and yes I should have known better to test before working. I donāt know what was up with me that day so I canāt say much else cause itās my own faultā¦ Well really itās the kid who wired the wall to the house panel instead of our panel that we were putting in
Yeah, thatās what axes are for! A good quick chop, and 2 wires cut the same time 
Iām joking of course (not really!)
Wear protective equipment and turn off at the mains, or remove from the mains. Watch out for transformers, those things keep hold of juice (found that out a few times).

Luck is what you feel and what you got inside.
The most important thing is,
you are in peace with yourself and you are able to transfer it to all the ones around you.
