See, now I remember an episode of MythBusters where they tested this theory out (though it was actually peeing on the Third Rail) and pretty much concluded that it couldnt happen because when you are peeing the urine breaks up during flight so there never really would be a full path from the ground/live wire/third rail to your um... weiner.
If that were so, wonder what he was trying to do with a live wire and his ... weiner

Go find a local farm and pee on the electric fence. You might find a different theory as many of us rural types learned when growing up. Won't kill ya but sure makes an impression. In other news, your tongue won't get stuck when placing it on a flag pole in the middle of winter. I triple dog dare ya!
This is certainly a hair raising Darwin winner.

Never pissed on one but one time I grabbed one to go under it. Yeah, that was a wake up call.
