People have tried it on me in primary school, but I've felt nothing. I thought the joke was they were holding the gum really hard.

they're basically tiny mouse traps so when you grab the gum it snaps on your fingers and causes a little sting.

Those are a thing too, but the shock gum actually spins a little motor to vibrate the stick of "gum" to make it feel like you're being shocked.

Apparently y'all got lucky. The ones used on me had a plastic roach attached to the end of it. Made it look and feel like one of the bastards had jumped on my finger.

Oh, it's not a real (albeit miniscule) shock? Disappointing.

My brother got me one of these for my last birthday and we've had a stupid amount of fun with it!

Mine is letting people borrow my pen and not getting it back. =\

I want my Wrigleys back :(
