The answer is it would depend:

Yes if 1/2 the thickness of the wire plus the diameter of the finger is less than or equal to 5/pi;

No if 1/2 the thickness of the wire plus the diameter of the finger is greater than 5/pi.

Cwire = Cearth + 10

pi x 2 x Rwire = pi X 2 x Rearth + 10

Rwire = Rearth + 5/pi


Kind of wild isn't it!

But who cares about fingers. What if the finger was replaced with a swallow.....
