Static shocks in malls

I've noticed this common occurrence in shopping malls where many visitors wear shoes 👟 and socks 🧦. As people walk, friction between their socks 🧦 and the ground generates static electricity ⚡️ . When individuals touch conductive surfaces like railings, escalator rails, they transfer this static charge irrespective of the place. This exchange of static electricity ⚡️ can lead to electric discharges, affecting those who come into contact with the charged surfaces. It's an interesting phenomenon 🧪⚗️ influenced by the everyday movement of people in these kind of crowded spaces. When I used to wear DMart Socks 🧦, whoever touch me experience a static/shock ⚡️😂. Some premium socks 🧦 may may help you avoid this.

There has been a study recently. Apparently in Bangalore, this phenomenon occurs more because of dry weather we are experiencing static shocks
