WARNING: NEVER GROUND YOURSELF TO THE EARTH IF THERE IS ANY CHANCE OF LIGHTNING. FOR EXAMPLE, WALKING BAREFOOT, SWIMMING, OR USING ANY GROUNDING PRODUCT WHEN LIGHTNING IS POSSIBLE COULD BE HAZARDOUS. THE BEST PLACE TO BE IN A LIGHTNING STORM IS INDOORS AND DISCONNECTED FROM THE EARTH. EVEN LIGHTNING FAR AWAY COULD BE HAZARDOUS.
In the first image, the multimeter shows 0.00. The meter is set to measure 2000 Milliamperes (mA) DC. The negative probe is stuck into the ground. The positive probe is laying on top of the multimeter.
In the second image, the positive probe is in my hand. Standing barefoot. The meter shows -41 mA. With crocs on the meter shows zero.
According to WebMD some think grounding, also known as vitamin G or electronic nutrition, fixes an electron deficiency syndrome. It is thought to lower inflammation, ease stress, and improve sleep.
How weird is that?
