This shot was taken at the Tough Mudder event at Badminton last week. This is the final obstacle and called Electric Therapy. The tapes hanging down have an electric potential and the contestants forced to go through water. I understand it is 10,000 volts but limited to very low current. Some contestants say it is like being flicked with an elastic band right next to your skin. It is initially painful but does not last. Those with heart conditions are encouraged to bypass it and anyone can choose to bypass without a penalty.

An interesting shot of an unusual event. I like the way the top row of people have been partly cropped so the viewer has to guess their facial expressions.
