The No Contact Electric JacketSome people just won’t get the message, will they? But, if you happen to be wearing the No Contact Jacket designed by Adam Whiton and Yolita Nugent there can be no doubt that your message will come across loud and clear in the form of a 80,000 volt shock that even the most persistent of assailants will find impossible to ignore.

Developed as a personal safety device, this wearable defensive jacket is manufactured from an exo-electric fabric armour which, in the event of being physically attacked will interfere with the assailant’s neurological impulses – resulting not only in a particularly painful non-lethal shock but involuntary spasms, complete loss of orientation and loss of balance, thus affording you valuable time to make good your escape.

In order to ensure that the wearer of this rather formidable jacket does not become a victim of their own protection, the jacket offers an insulating rubber layer though the official site does make it clear that the user should not expose other body parts to the jacket – such as their legs or face – otherwise they could be in for a shock themselves. However, thankfully the jacket is not constantly live as it is activated via a small switch stitched into one of the sleeves.

If becoming a giant, walking taser appeals, the No Contact Jacket coasts around $1000.
