Thats an odd question. I hope I'm way off on this, but if you are thinking about doing something to yourself please talk to someone and look into an antidepressant. Sometimes we cant see the big picture until we look back at the tough times in our life and wonder how we ever had those thoughts. The hard part is getting through it to the other side, but its worth it in the end. Please save yourself and hold on.

(If I'm completely off, so be it. I'd rather say it and be wrong than not say it and be right)

About 100 to 200 milliamps of direct current is enough to kill a human being, substantially less if it's alternating current.

Only 10 Milli amperes through the heart is enough to kill a human.

The electric current required to kill a human being is 10 milli amperes or 0.0001 amps. The currents here are very strong which leads in killing of the human being immediately he or she gets into contact with them. Read more at http://hypertextbook.com/facts/2000/JackHsu.shtml.
