700 Volts is way more than sufficient to stop your heart. The most
lethal shocks pass across the heart, i.e. hand to hand or hand to ground
via the foot. This is why, when working on live equipment, you should
always keep one hand in your pocket.
DC is more lethal than AC because when you grasp a conductor at high
voltage, your muscles contract and lock you onto that conductor. With
DC the lock is continuous; with AC the voltage continually fluctuates
and passes through zero volts twice each cycle, so it is not impossible
to break that electrified muscle grip.
Either AC or DC can kill you perfectly well, though.

IIRC (from a distance of 60 years) one Coulomb is the quantity of
electric charge (number of electrons) required to raise the electric
charge of a one Farad capacitor by one Volt.
Farads are big, electrons are small; a Coulomb is a lot of electrons.
