Because our muscles are set off by electric signals.

So electric shocks can cause all your muscles to rapidly contract. So if you accidentally grab something energized, that electric shock can force your hand to grab even harder onto wire/pole.

It’s also why you’ll hear stories of people getting “launched” across a room by electric shocks, it’s actually their legs muscles all contracting at once that is launching them
