why electric shock due to dc is dangerous than that of ac

Answer Posted / anoop

Many of the people here have simply written things without
knowing what it is. A.C is dangerous because of its larger
peak voltage and its ability to distort our hearts beating
cycle( causing fibrillation). D.C is dangerous because, a
person touching D.C will feel difficulty in leaving as our
muscles contract in one way and the person usually holds on
to the conductor.
But finally A.C is more dangerous.
