FYI today we (In NE Colorado) had very hot, dry, windy weather.
( Humidity was 15% )

I pulled into my garage tonite, and it was dark, because my automatic light bulb was burnt out.

When I got out of the car, I touched the driver door, and I was wearing leather shoes, not rubber, if that matters ( much ).

There was a BIG BLUE SPARK that was impressive enough to light up my garage kind of like a small camera flash. And yes, it hurt and scared the *ell out of me!
The tingle went away in less than a minute.

I can't speak for anyone else, but it is probably true that some people are more suseptible to pain and/or electric shock, and what I felt could have been more dramatic and lasting for them ( and I thought it was plenty dramatic myself ).
