I'd like to try an experiment if you're down for it some day. Nothing lethal of course, but I'd love to plant a couple sets of taser prongs in your back (or mine) (or both), under a controlled environment, and do an analysis of how much bodily control you have while being fed 50K volts from both of them. We could do simple things, like, raise your arm. Speak. Blink.
And see how many you successfully complete. Then we can determine whether or not this man was able to "leap" off that cliff or had a "choice" in anything at that point.
