Remember kids, mics make lousy tub toys...
Candidate for 2005 Darwin awards?
http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/10/31/pas....ap/index.html If this guy was rock-hard stupid enough to do this, some of you might be too - take heed. Though I might be circumventing natural selection by warning you. Apparently he'd gotten away with it before. He's probably not the only one. I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often. |

Why are they not using wireless for a baptism???? |

I'm definitely surprised it doesn't happen more often. Any church that size should have had wireless and he may have but just took it off (as many preachers do) for fear of getting the wireless wet. I just hate to see people treating him like an idiot or worse questioning his moral character (though it was an IGNORANT thing to do) for doing it when I've seen professional musicians who should know better do just as stupid stuff (though not necessarily in baptismals). |

You apparently missed the Hollywood tabloid news flash about the starlet who was saved from certain death when somebody ripped the wireless mic off her just before she jumped into the swimming pool. That 1.5V would have killed her! (No members of the popular press know the slightest thing about electricity, and their readers are even dumber.) |

I gave up on a very bad piece of detective fiction when it talked about a guy electrocuted in a swimming pool and said "The voltage current was so strong, the pool still measured 60 volts 12 hours after the power was turned off." Aside from using phrases like "voltage current", this is the equivalent of saying "The bullet that killed him was so powerful, when we dug it out of his chest it was still moving at 30mph."
