>>Actually it is the "current" (amperes) passing through your body that will kill you. One of many ways to do that job. Ohms law describes the relationship of potential (measured in volts), resistance (measured in ohms) and current (measured in amperes). But without volts I guess there would be no amps so it could be said that it is really a combination of volts and amps that can kill you. A watt is a measure of power or work (Volts*Amperes).
