Why do people die when a radio falls into the tub they are bathing in?
The wires only have a voltage relative to each other. Red has voltage relative to black, but not the water or the person. Black has voltage relative to red, but not the water or the person. Electricity always follows the path of least resistance, so shouldn't the electricity go straight between red and black instead of going through all the water and the person?
