I've read a figure of about 200 mA thru the heart will either stop it or flip it into fib. Better hope it stops it and then you
fall and restart the heart.
It has been stated that 240 AC is much safer than 120 simply because it tends to stop the heart and then you can get it restarted
by other means. Defib is not a nice process.
