Yeah.  A real man would work right through a short-to-ground that caused the full power of the circuit to flow through him to ground.  Granted, it's hard to work efficiently when your muscles are in spasm and your heart's fibrillating like mad (or stopped altogether); but that's how you show you're tough.
