If you discount the throwing across the room bit, I have seen this in the past:
Electric shock on a plastic rocker switch. On further investigation I got 80-100V by putting a multimeter probe on the gap between the toggle and faceplate - to earth. On closer inspection this was full of dark black detritus.
This was in a kitchen and I imagine the switch being wiped with a dirty dishcloth over the years........
