I could never understand why a 3-way switch was needed when a motion sensor would have done the job.
Well, when I first ran into wondering about 3-way switches, there were no motion sensors that anyone could afford.
My first shock was about 500 VDC, yup, plate voltage on an output tube. My conclusion from that was that I did not like shocks. I have been carefully avoiding them ever since. Maybe my love of solving ground problems is related to that.
On the same amp the hand holding the probe slipped and the probe -- not me -- shorted the 120VAC. It was cool to see the brass under the tin plate of the probe. This also told me something to avoid.

Got a handful of >50KV. That was fun. Oh, yeah.
Ah, the moments of our lives that we will never forget!
