Electricity and our lungs

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hello Everyone:)

I have a question regarding something I've heard a few different people claim. If someone is zapped with electricity from a typical electrical outlet, or so other electrical source that might give a "good zap" but not hospitalize them, is it possible for them to blow smoke or water vapour from their lungs as a result of the electrocution? I attempted to search the web with no references to this phenomenon. It doesn't seem likely

Thank you so much in advance

    Hi there,

    I was zapped across the room (well backwards at least, not quite the room!) as a teen and didn't happen to me.
