Granted, it's the current that kills. But you need enough voltage to puncture the skin and get to that salty blood.

I doubt that 1mv would do it -- but if a thousand amps is hovering around somewhere where I can touch it, I'm in the next room, thank you very much.

Very true. The little capacitor in a common battery powered camera flash can be deadly.
