Will you get an electric shock from sticking a fork across pins? I thought that the fork would short the curcuit. More probable scenario is that one can easy stick a finger between pins when plugging or unplugging a device.

That is why the voltage should be lowered to 70 Volts.

You can certainly get some fun, but modern outlets in modern homes will be GFCI and trip before much happens. If the GFCI doesn’t trip it means all current is going through the fork and none through you - the breaker will trip if the fork draws too much current otherwise it will just get hot.

You will if you touch the live pin alone at some point (you likely will).

The voltage shouldn't be lowered, the pins should simply be designed not to be both connected and exposed at the same time.
