Guy 1: Sup bro, how was the weekend?
Guy 2: Not great, had a mad case of tetanus.
Guy 1: Oh shit, did you step on a rusty nail?
Guy 2: No, I went over to Trinh’s house for Vietnamese New Year and went overboard on the five fruit tray. It ran through me like a hot knife through butter.
Guy 1: Oh yeah that’ll do it.
An increasing amount of electrical shocks to the muscle causes the muscle to contract in such a way that before it can fully relax it is electrically stimulated again. This causes summation effect where contractions get stronger and stronger the more the muscle fiber is shocked.
For example, in a lab the muscle fiber was shocked 15 times per second which caused the fiber to be in a state of incomplete tetanus.
