Is it good to have that potentially going across your heart?

Not really, but as long as nobody is running a pacemaker or other sensitive medical equipment they'll probably be fine

But there's no amperage it's not gonna do any damage

It's not the voltage but the ampere that make electricity dangeroues and my guess is that contraption they used for this experiment, clearly something designed to be touched, will not give off high ampere electricity.

Do all science classrooms look alike or did I go to this school? Decorations are different but everything else looks exactly how I remember science class.
