Me too, I would not like to be in the news either.

Is it possible for a diver to get a shock underwater??? Has anyone ever been killed underwater by electricity? Don't circuit breakers and GFI's prevent this from happening if a break occurs in the line? If a line was open underwater for some reason and the water was "electrified" you wouldn't be able to enter the water anyway. That's an interesting question I'd never thought about.

The little plastic props on the well pump size dock circulators probably wouldn't do much to you, but there are some pretty heavy duty props like at the Wolfeboro Mt. Washington tie up that would probably cut you up!
