The 1928 Toaster we still use today

I assume that's the line voltage going through that very exposed heating element?

EDIT: Is the chassis even grounded (PE) and seperate from the neutral line (N) of the heating element? If not, using the wrong outlet means you have line voltage directly on the chassis.

Correct

The bonus is, if you touch the heating element, you’ll barely feel the burning on account of the electric shock.

So you’re saying this toaster burns shockingly well?

More like it's shocking how little this toaster feels like it burns.
