yeah you're probably right. I don't remember the exact numbers.

Though I was also telling a story and exaggeration tends to be a part of story telling.

It's like saying I saw an alligator as big as a house. Sure, probably didn't happen, but you get the point.

The battery in a Prius seems to be around 300V[1], which is plenty lethal. Most electric vehicles have lethal battery voltages, typically around 200-400V.
