Electricity. Hand curled around it to grab and got rooted. I still remember the sensation of my repeating mental command to "LET GO" feeling as if it was slowly travelling down my arm. Weird is a word that comes to mind.
Wow that's wild, my only experience with that tingling feeling is testing 9V batteries with my tongue. I've had a healthy fear of electricity and always LOTO at work, so I'm hoping it stays that way.
The wild part is it didn't hurt. I don't remember any pain at all. Just an intense knowledge that something was very wrong and I needed to get away as quickly as I could. But like no matter how hard I tried my body would not listen until that signal I mentioned hit my hand and I let go.
I was also surrounded by people and not a single person noticed.
But yeah, Iiii wouldn't repeat the experience.
