okay so when my epic is plugged in and i jump in the air while im holding it it shockes me with static i thought it was random. so i jumped again.. still got shocked..

anyone else have this happen? i also tried unplugging it and it still did it about to try it with my shoes off and with a different charger.

(i also work at a sprint store so imagine a sprint worker jumping with no shoes haaha)
 
its definetly my work shoes.. and works with multiple chargers but only usb.. and only if i have my shoes on which are just standard work shoes i guess.. happends with my epic and the stores display epic
 
A man goes to the doctor. He says "doctor, when I jump while holding my plugged in phone, I get a shock. what should I do?". The doctor says "don't jump".

Budumdum crash!
 
lol i think this is really weird it happends to both me and my manager.. you guys should try it out its real weird
 
Good thing you cant fly, if a jump causes a small shock leaving the ground for a while might cause electrocution.
 
Mine shocks me, too. But, then again, so does everything else metal after I've walking in my running shoes for a bit.

They build up static easily.
 
ive just never had anything shock me so relibably everytime i try and do it lol
LMAO^^^ That must be quite a scene--you and your manager jumping in the store. Do you do synchronized jumping? And while attached with a USB cord too--my Oh MY
