Testing the Safety of Tasers On Meth-Addled Sheep
Funded in part by Taser International, a recent study was done to learn the effects of being tasered while on methamphetamines. Since someone would probably complain about researchers going around and tasering meth addicts, they used sheep instead. From the article: "The less-lethal device of choice was the Taser X26, a standard law enforcement tool which can fire at suspects from a distance of 35 feet. Researchers shocked sixteen anesthetized sheep after dosing the animals with an IV drip of methamphetamine hydrochloride. Some of the smaller sheep weighing less than 70.5 pounds suffered exacerbated heart symptoms related to meth use. But neither the smaller nor larger sheep showed signs of the ventricular fibrillation condition, a highly abnormal heart rhythm that can become fatal."
Speaking of meth-addled....

I could have sworn it said 'testing the safety of l a s e r s', and I'm like - WTF??? And then I slowed down and focused and noticed it said 't a s e r s' - love being in my own episodes of SP. And no, Terrance & Phillip do NOT exist here, sorry. Just Cap'n Jack 100

Exceeding the recommended torque is not recommended.
This is why I visit Slashdot. 1 guy has the balls to call out another who is a complete retard, semantically anyway, and he corrected the statement. Then another comes along to improve. You just can't find these kinds of minds among the general population. You two belong here, you so belong here. :)
The first guy doesn't belong here because that video was and still is all over the net. If you get that quote wrong you fail internet 101, let alone 103 which is a prerequisite to post on slashdot.
