What's wrong with tail touching? And there is a difference between a 8 oz foamie and a gas powered model flying in the pitts.
AS my dear departed dad pointed out to me--the jolt from a spark plug won't really hurt you--but it will make you hurt yourself.
Distractions in the pits at the wrong time(e.g., when there are people and airplanes in there) can cause people to hurt themselves. Ever hear of a bee flying around in a car causing a roll-over? I know one that happened that way.
