If a person jumps and then touches an electrical outlet's hot terminal at $220 \, \mathrm{V} ,$ would it cause them harm? Would any current flow through them?
If a person on the 11th floor of a tall building touches the hot terminal of an electrical socket without jumping, then would current flow through them? What if they were touching a large metal fixture like a radiator as well?
Answer
It depends how you do it. If you have one finger on the positive terminal and one finger on the negative terminal then most certainly current will still flow as you are closing a circuit. And, yes, it would hurt you.
I don't understand your second question entirely...
