Electric eels can discharge up to 650 volts of electricity. That's over 5 times the voltage of an American power outlet! If you think that sounds bad, take a closer look at the eels surrounding you. Those are Volta electric eels, known to pack an 860-volt punch. That's the strongest electrical discharge of any animal. They have been known to knock an entire horse off its feet with a shock.
