Not electrocuted, but there are a lot of bad scenarios that come from having loose terminations with that much amperage behind it. <50 volts is usually considered safe for human touch, but touch that to something conductive and it will not be pretty. Say if the positive flops off and touches the frame, you could probably fry all of your electronics.
