Does it count as electrocution if you drown from a shock? Maybe I guess. Looked up the great lakes thing but I’m still not buying it. Never mind, thanks for the internet argument!
I’ve looked it up and all I can find are examples of people drowning because they were near the power source and their muscles spasmed. A far cry from dropping a cable from a generator and instantly zapping hundreds of people. Any other examples?
Bollocks. Not how electricity works. You put a power cable into swamp water and that electricity is flowing straight into the ground. Nobody who touches the water will get hurt, that’s literally how grounding works. Look into how the earth wire prevents shocks and you’ll see what I mean.
Maybe they built the road out of bodies, I guess it’s possible, I just doubt it because of the stupidity of the electricity part.
This makes no sense at all. How do you electrify a swamp? Why would you build a road out of flesh? This was made up by somebody who doesn’t understand how electricity works and possibly doesn’t know how roads work.
No I’m from UK so it’s AC. Yeah if you had neutral on the other end of the swamp you’d be getting closer but still doubt you’d get to electrocution levels. That’s how the electric barrier in the great lakes works that the guy was on about. But that’s a short distance, with the water surrounded by rock, and it only gets about 2 volts. For a swamp I would expect too much current to be leaking into the earth and nowhere near enough current to be flowing through the people. Judging by the downvotes I guess I’m wrong and the Iraqi army have some insanely powerful swamp electrifying device that’s completely undocumented and was only used once and has never been repeated since.
Anyway I’m out of this argument, don’t drag me back in!
