Even throwing a metal pipe against it won't do anything. Electric fences have one electrode in the ground, and that's how your body makes the circuit. If they had run and jumped onto the fence, then jumped off on the other side they would have been fine with the fences still active.

Source: I've set up an electric fence and been shocked multiple times, once through my head.

Yet Tim gets shocked when hanging on the fence when it turns on while he’s climbing down. I trust movie science far more than your acquired knowledge. Your ignorance is probably what’s holding you back from full blown deity.
