One of my friends at university (at a top level institution) found
himself holding a live plug a on Jesus lead left behind by a previous
graduate student. The burns from that were horrific. Once attached you
can't let go or move and burning human flesh doesn't smell good. He was
probably only on for 30s before someone realised and disconnected him.

What's a "Jesus lead"? I tried to google, but what I find are songs.

A "suicide cord" has a plug on one end and alligator clips on the
other. Very handy.
