Playing with Static Electricity

Not long ago, Craig went to the park to play on his favourite slide. It was a cool day and he was wearing ski pants that are water-resistant nylon on the outside and fleece on the inside plus a fleece top. When combined with the friction of him sliding down a plastic tunnel there was enough static electricity to make his hair stand on end when he reached the bottom. Craig's Mum was extra-cautious about touching him, as you can see.
