Try getting 12KV up your arm.
I was knocked unconscious when I hit the wall but walked away.

I'm used to it.
Was it a all male school then?
The installation is very shoddy and these things are a notorious fire hazard at the best of times. 9 times out of 10 any arcing fault will be on the secondary side that supplies the neon tube, not on the supply side. They can produce up to 20 KV or thereabouts which makes the secondary wiring very prone to arcing. If you get a whack off the secondary wiring it will be a defining moment in your life that you won't forget (assuming you live to tell the tale). Where I am it's law that this type of transformer is supplied by a firemans switch on the 230v supply. The switch has to be mounted in a visible location and easily accessible/operated with a 2 meter pole.
