    11. Chantal says:

      oh my gosh…lol.
      i love how theyre trying to keep it above the water with sandals. lol SCARY

      • Rachel says:

        They’re not trying to keep it up with sandals. The sandals are rubber, that’s why they’re there. They were TRYING to have some sense about this. Notice the wood taped to the red cord at the edge of the pool. Rubber and wood don’t conduct electricity. They were trying not to electrocute themselves. Hence they’re not QUITE as dumb as they look. But, still, you have to be pretty idiotic to even consider trying this.

      • Jax says:

        epic fail for trying to defend the bright thinkers who came up with this scenario…the table can’t be NEXT to the pool why?

      • Chantal says:

        Rachels a bitch…

      • Chris says:

        Wood IS conductive. That wouldn’t matter anyway! What the would putting insulators by it do anyway?

      • princess says:

        wood is conductive? that is fascinating. would you mind backing up that claim that has very serious repercussions for the scientific community. ps, are you american by any chance?

      • chris says:

        Wood that’s wet and/or imbued with salt can conduct electricity as well as human skin.

      • Eldix says:

        Princess, why dont you go touch a high-voltage power line with a wooden stick? Then we wouldn’t have to read your idiotic posts.

      • Jaykzula says:

        you would know that if you watched Jurassic Park once in a while.

    12. sam says:

      omg they r such dumb asses

    13. JerzeyLegend says:

      Even REDNECKS aren’t that stupid.

    14. Wolf says:

      Whats the point in putting the thing in the center anyways ? Wont it be easier to just put it somewhere near … >.> ?

    15. B18 says:

      I wonder what the outcome of that was…huh.

    16. Sal says:

      Stupid fucking brits.

      • Becca says:

        Sorry to disappoint you, but British 3 pin plugs don’t look like that. They’re European but not British so you stupid Americans could at least get that right before you try and look clever. :D

      • actiondave says:

      • JC says:

        Apperantly they are missing a few cards from the deck, got short changed in the smarts department. Now dont mess with USA right now we are liable to kik anyones asses!! And we have the technology.

      • max_power says:

        They are germans. They drink the Bitburger brand, which is the most famous german beer, ’cause it’s the sponsor of the national football team. Tastes like shit though, even worse than Miller lite or somehting like that. Can’t see how germans seem to like it, when there’s actual good beer – oh, wait i can – they’re stupid!

      • Alejandro says:

        JC, you may have the technology, but you can’t spell.

        And WE have your airplanes, so shut the fu*k up.

      • noblevendetta says:

    25. Some guy says:

      Judging by the beer they are Germans.
      In any case, ever heard of cutouts?
      This isn’t as dangerous as it looks.

      • Proud to be European says:

        Germans aren’t so stupid, they must be American

      • Nobody says:

        They seam to be German guys.
        I think the red labled Beer is called “Früh Kölsch” but I don’t know exactly how far this kind of Beer is shipped.
        Cologne (Köln) is a Town in Germany, where we always drink this verry good stuff!

    32. Anal Violator says:

      I love it when Americans blindly insult the Brits & make themselves look stupid. YOU people are why the world is fucked up – as soon as we stopped running your Country the world got fucked up. Period. I bet people take this seriously too. I’m an American. No I’m not. I’m an asshole. Fix up – we’re all on here to HAVE FUN!!!!
