Testing 110/220 with your fingers was standard practice for electrician school in the Army in the 1960's. My brother had to learn it while in the Army's TTY school. They probably don't do it anymore but remember, those were the days when most voltmeters were still VTVM's. Maybe they figured that, if you can survive electrican school, you can survive Viet Nam? He did both, fortunately!

No it was not standard practice. You were taught to keep your fingers out of it.
