What is more dangerous, current or voltage? Why?

The higher the current, the more likely it is lethal. Since current is proportional to voltage when resistance is fixed (ohm's law), high voltage is an indirect risk for producing higher currents.

Voltage is more dangerous because current is just a phenomenon that happens when a voltage is applied.
