title: A theoretical analysis of the "let-go" phenomenon.
abstract: A mathematical analysis is presented that provides a theoretical explanation for the "let-go" neuromuscular stimulation phenomenon. This analysis includes consideration of electrophysiological, bioelectrical, and anthropometric factors that are involved in accidental electrical stimulation of forearm musculature during "let-go."
