And, for your personal protection, it helps if you can sweat, and crouch on
one foot. The sweat is a good conductor, and the current will flow outside
your body rather than through (less resistance) although all your body hair
is likely to be nipped off. The one-foot is in case of a nearby stroke,
when a voltage gradient could induce a current up one leg and down the
other, the ultimate 'buzz' . (not likely a concern with sea boots on)
And wrapping yourself in tinfoil, or a metal boat, would create a Faraday
pail that... well, another time :>)
