Application

100

1 reason why lightning is less likely to kill you in the ocean than in a pool

What is the fact that resistance is proportionate to length?

Note--If you are on or sticking out of the water, it will still kill you because you act as a lightning rod and will be struck first.

Also note--saltwater is incredibly conductive and you should absolutely not test any theories related to lightning in the water.
