My guess is she had an extension cord near the tub (not a good idea) into which she plugged the charger. So she accidentally pulled the extension cord - and 110VAC - into the water.

No GFI there, eh?

A direct short like that would blow most ANY breaker/fuse.

This isn’t how she ACTUALLY died.

If this happened in Russia, it’s probably 240. The rest of the world uses 240 as their regular outlets. That 120 vac stuff is just the US and Canada.

Actually, I think most of Europe etc uses 220.
