In my misspent youth I often entertained the idea of building a device almost exactly like this (but with additional electrode pairs on the spikes protruding from the elbow pads of my leather jacket) due to having grown up in a college town where the normal annoyance of jocks/meatheads/etc… beating up and harassing nerds and punks (and God help you if you were BOTH) that for most people ends after high school seemed to continue well into young adulthood in my home town (what with some 45-55% of the population being undergrads at any given moment September-June, and one of the two schools being famous for effectively letting rich parents buy their kids way in no matter how ill-behaved or dim-witted those kids may have been…)
My plan was to call it the ‘jock zapper’ and if I found myself cornered by meatheads intent on inflicting pain and humiliation on the lone nerd caught walking between his girlfriend’s dorm on their turf and home (safely back in townie territory) it could be activated to add a bit of extra oomph to thrown punches and elbows or better yet to cause them to think better of picking a fight in the first place at the meanacing crackle of electricity and the small arcs bristling from spike to spike.

I never found quite the right transformer or driver circuit and eventually got to be old enough that the meatheads no longer felt as sure of themselves picking a fight with someone clearly more than a decade older (I also drove a pack of them from my house with a loaded 12 gague after they’d followed me home yelling taunts and homophobic threats on account of my leopard print pants. From their blind panic and soiling themselves I surmised that the realization that the nerd they had beem antagonizing and threatening was now one finger twitch from evicerating them two or three at a time finally sunk in and when it did it made an impression) but in any case I figured I’d throw that out there as a practical use for such a device.
