A New Hampshire teen that got his nipple zapped sues his teacher, the school district and the city of Dover. The New Hampshire high school teen was shocked so severely in shop class that his heart stopped beating after attaching an electrical clamp to his nipple and plugged the cord and got zapped.

Kyle Dubois and his parents claim that teacher Thomas Kelley did not warn Dubois and other students of the dangers of the electrical demonstration cords in their electrical trades class. On March 11, Dubois attached an electrical clamp to one nipple while another student attached another clamp to the other. A third student plugged in the cord. The result, Dubois was critically injured.

The New Hampshire Union Leader says Dubois’ suit contends he suffered permanent brain damage. Teacher Thomas Kelley resigned from his teaching position about a month after the incident. He declined to comment on the lawsuit.
