When i went for my diving licence our instructor guy made the 3 of us all touch one just to know what it feels like as there are alot in my area. It feels like touching an electric fence, not that bad but would suck if you werent expecting it.

yeah i'd probably do it again but I had no idea that electric rays even existed so when I touch I was like, " what the ........"
 
I new it existed but he didnt tell us what it was.
All you could see was a round depression in the sand and he make us jam out hands into it. Pretty freaky. Yeah i have done it again and have had fun making someone else do it since also.
 
back when i work at LFS we had several brazilian erays..... they were only about 3.5-4" in diameter..... there was one that wasnt doing too well....... infact it was bellyup in the the tank.... so i decided to pick it up and throw it away....:screwy: :WHOA: yea they can give quite a jolt!!!!!!
 
cool pics. Thanks for sharing.

The one I touched was a lot more brown, but not as cool looking as those.
