I could see this. I’ve had motherboards reboot from static affecting the USB ports. Could be a power button or similar that sends the shock straight to the board.
It just makes me think of certain old crappy Sony TV production monitors that would stop working in color but if you hit them in the right place they’d work again for a little while. Sony sold the parts to fix them for more than a new monitor so a lot of stations just put them places where it didn’t matter if they were black and white instead of color.

Had a flashback to that shitty PC I had as a kid where if you punched the side around the power supply, the pc would reboot.
Why were you punching the PC?
I was a dumb kid.
Because its a naughty computer in need if punishment.
Probably gaming related, keyboards and mice can only take so much rage before you need to go one up.
Have you not vented frustration on a peripheral/controller or in red blind rage turned the console/PC off?
N-No?
