975,000 Volts.

Don't be a silly dill, 120 volts can kill

Lel, pussy.

I'm planning on testing this question, looking for the lower limit. I'm also wondering if people can be trained to be more electrically sensitive.

I like that /sci/ has no knowledge of it though

Probably somewhere around Raiden levels.

One time I was scooting around my living room in wool socks and I shot a lightning bolt from my finger about 20cm and knocked my sister unconscious.

It depends. You could survive ludicrously high voltages of DC with perfectly dry skin, whereas it takes an order of magnitude less volts of AC with wet skin, its a bad question because everyones different

Neutrogena, desu senpai.

A human can survive as many volts as he has IQ points. So for OP the limit would be somewhere around 80V.

About 1 mA AC, varies a bit by person. AC and DC are slightly different... DC polarizes cells and impedance rises quickly with time, so the sensation goes away maybe before you really notice.

"The results indicated that power is the relevant variable, and that sensitivity to threshold shocks probably depends on the amount of power dissipated in the immediate vicinity of the skin receptors. This view is supported by the observation that skin thickness seems to be of considerable importance—the thicker the skin, the higher the threshold."

I have electrocuted myself with a 20kv 50miliamp neon sign transformer before (purposely). it felt good, made my heart race too.

I really don't care about that. I want to know what humans can sense

Blood thinners over a long time will let the veins in your nerves be more sensitive to friction (ie electrical frequencies) and... that's the bottom limit aside from the questionable amount of electricity that is required by the brain to function
