DJSpirit mentioned his /her electrical powers and said it may only be static...
One should never discount the potency of static electricity.
I used to work in a library which was built in a large tin roofed building cramming in miles of metal shelving, dozens of computers, printers, photocopiers etc. Add to this mix, nylon carpets, rubber soled shoes and a healthy dose of sexual tension especially at the height of summer and we all (me in particular) would give each other hefty electric shocks if we touched each other and could receive quite a jolt from the equipment.
(I even mentioned this to the site Health and Safety officer as a potential hazard. No joy of course.)
Many years ago, at secondary school there was a lad (let's call him Simon ford, for that was his name) who had even greater 'powers'.
Whenever we used to play basketball in the school gym, Simon would build up a charge so powerful that his own hair would stand on end and anyone touching him would get a shock so powerful that it really, really, really hurt!
This was partly due to us wearing revesible (double sided) nylon rugby shirts and rubbber plimsolls and bouncing large rubber balls. But, of course, Simon's own body chemistry must have had a lot to do with his own particular potency...
