No. It is amperage that does the damage. See the following list

Keep in mind 1000 milliamps equals 1 amp of current.

Less than 1/2 milliamp no sensation

1/2 to 2 milliamps Threshold of perception

2 to 10 milliamps Muscular contraction

5 to 25 milliamps Painful shock (may not be able to let go)

Over 25 milliamps Could be violent muscular contraction

50 to 100 milliamps Ventricular fibrillation

over 100 Paralysis of breathing.
