Contrary to popular belief, electrons simply don’t move, they stay in the same area and are repeatedly accelerated by the magnetic field that gets completed when a power source and load are close enough, that’s how transformers work and also why wireless charging works such as with toothbrushes,
That’s also why lightning works, wireless charging with wifi works etc

The reason it may not eletrocute you is that air is terribly inefficient and skin is naturally a good insulator
