dumpsterDiver:I don't know if you can eat them, but I can personally assure you that they can deliver one helluva shock, I got zapped in the jaw muscle by a big one on a solo night dive after I apparently, accidentally disturbed him.
My jaw was numb for 45 minutes, and I originally thought that I had been slammed in the face by a small shark or something, since I did not discover the source of my significant discomfort for about 5 or 8 seconds. It felt very much like a very solid punch to my face; I wonder what it could do if it zapped someone very close to their heart?
Almost had the same thing happen - http://www.scubaboard.com/showthread.php?t=138589
I was wondering what it would have felt like to get shocked, lol.
