Um, hit "Returning", stick in your email and password, and check the "remember me" box.

Jul 30th 2008 2:48PM It looked to me like he got shocked when he put his hand on the steering wheel while touching the body.

This could be in combination with his feet touching the ground.

So he could have completed a circuit either by a) Bridging the body to the steering wheel, or b) bridging the steering wheel to ground.

Personally, B seems more likely, since it's not something that one would do very often, hence it's less likely that it would be detected.
