Gal in our neighborhood took a shower and washed her hair and then decided to soak in the tub while she dried her hair. Hands were slick and she dropped the hair dryer in the tub while it was plugged in. Husband came home from work early and found her. Fortunately her kids weren’t home yet from school.
People just don’t think about what a bad combination water and electrical current can be.
I think it was back in high school the science teacher talked about someone getting electrocuted by hitting the light switch with wet hands. Enough dirt and dust and lint, high humidity was enough to get the electrons to the plastic switch - and then wet hands...
I always make sure my hands are dry to this day!
Sad to think of him finding her like that (though glad the kids didn’t).
My Grandmother used to say, “Oh, Honey, the brevity of life and the certainty of the Judgment!” I was clueless then but as I get older I realize the truth of that more and more.
