    fun fact: there’s 400 Volts between the terminals laterally. that’s gonna be one hell of a cardiac arrest.

        Actually it’s both. You can have as high of a current as you want, if there’s no high enough voltage potential, current simply won’t flow. Any battery can push more than few amps of current easily, but voltage potential is not high enough to push it through your body. In general you are right, minimal amounts of current are enough to cramp a muscle, however it takes a lot of pushing to get to that muscle.
