Burglar-Proof Door Has Shocking Results
Huang, of Zhengzhou installed a burglar-proof iron door only to discover that it had 149 volts running through it, which is enough electricity to light up a 40-watt bulb.
Huang told the local press that he and his family were forced to wear rubber gloves every time they opened the door.
“Each time, we touched the door, we received strong shocks that made our whole arms and body feel numb.â€
Huang was so confused, he even had an electrician check the door to confirm it had electricity running through it. Oddly, even after the building’s electrical supply was cut off, the door was STILL CHARGED!
Huang also swears the walls had no cables when he replaced the old wooden door with the burglarproof iron one.
Huang was forced to dismantle the door and since he cannot afford a replacement, is appealing to locals for help.

I think you guys are missing the point… If the door isn’t wired, that means there’s some unidentified source of power creating a current through the door.
They seem to be talking about something like this:

I wonder what the source of the power is.

“Hung was so confused.”
I think that’s about got it.
