There was a time when "electrocuted" meant "to be killed by electricity", exclusively, as opposed to suffering but surviving an electric shock. Popular misuse has resulted in the original meaning being loosened and the term can now be applied to experiencing a severe injury through electrical contact as well.

You think being electrocuted is humor?
I think that video was hilarious. If you didn't, I am sorry your sense of humor is so...ummm...fragile.
Thank you, Steve. I did try posting it using the [youtube] method, but it would not work. Not sure why, but I'll give it another try when I have another video to post.
I śaw it through your link and thought WOW on several levels (fishing in torrential rain being #1!) so thank you for the interesting glimpse of what will never be my life

The threat of lightening happens often for a golf course. I love golf. But if there is any threat of lightening anywhere near a course I am scheduled to play...I simply opt out. If I am on a course and some thunder sounds...even if far away...I head for the club house.
Standing in water and feeling a hit...should be powerful motivation to get the hell out of there.

You have to replace (manually type) the /shorts/ part of the link with /watch?v=

When I hit review...it didn't seem to work. I'm going to post this..and if it doesn't work, could you repost it correctly. Maybe I will learn it that way.

I am, shall we say, tech challenged.
You still need the [youtube] and [/youtube], ya big goof.
I suspect by his reaction, it was staged or acted. The likelihood is so remote and that he had the same reaction as the first time is unlikely, too. I’m going to rewatch it to see if it was just a repeat loop.
[edit: nope. Not a repeat tape loop. However, I remain sceptical. After the fishing rod has so little metal on it so as to reduce the conductivity to zilch.
Another thing…why is someone videoing these two clownfish fishing in lightning storm?

Great question.
I am very careful regarding lightening. I will not allow myself to be on a beach or a golf course when thunder can be heard...no matter how far away.
The two guys in the water are nuts. The person taping is just as nuts.
