At frequencies in the megahertz range, the skin effect becomes significant, and current will not go very deep. I have read that if you're in a strong radio frequency field the first thing you'll notice is warmth in the ankles (so get away from that transmitting antenna!). Contact with RF voltage will result in deep, painful burns; really little danger of electrocution.
