230 v ac and 230 v dc ,, which one is more dangerous to human body

DC. AC contracts and relaxes muscles, DC just contracts them so it's harder to let go. There are other reasons, too, but the answer is DC.
You will also notice that contacts that are rated for both AC and DC will have a lower DC than AC rating.
When you die of electrocution, you are more dead from DC than you are from AC.

Proven fact.... :roll:
um i am no expert but i think once you're dead you cant be "more dead"
. But in an earlier experiment that he caught on film, he killed an elephant with AC and it took an agonizingly long time to die.
Where's the rim shot?In case of DC,polarity of voltage also is important to cause electrocution.In one experiment two rabbits were connected in series across a DC voltage via a switch.On closing the switch,only one died and other survived.On reversing the polarity,the other also died.
The rabbits on DC voltage experiment was mentioned in V.Manoilav's 'Electricity and Man' MIR publishers,Moscow.
The second rabbit did not die,despite DC was passing it,till polarity of DC voltage was reversed.I suppose it never occurred to him that the reason the second rabbit would die is because it was the only one still alive eh?

To know if it was polarity or something else the experimenter would have to look at thousands of details. It would not be a simple experiment.In case of DC,polarity of voltage also is important to cause electrocution.In one experiment two rabbits were connected in series across a DC voltage via a switch.On closing the switch,only one died and other survived.On reversing the polarity,the other also died.
Nah, he is just mostly dead, if he was all dead there is only one thing to do, go though his pockets for loose change.
