This shit has me scared because of the way my Hot Tub is rigged up......

It's old and my pops ran the 120v on it.....

Is a ground fault interupter enough to save my ass if some bad shit happens?

I also pee off the side of the deck while standing in the hot tub.... the 120 line is right below.... IS that stupid?

I'm not sure about the tub since I can't visualize it, but I highly doubt your "stream" would be perfectly continous to give you a shock. I do remember a guy from Jackass the show got a little shock when he peed on an electric fence though. :kekeke:

ELCBs (Earth Leakage Circuit-Breakers) are worth fitting if you intend pissing on live wires :oh_no:

Very true, and for some reason there is something very funny about that sentence. :lol:

Why don't you take a trip to the John before you get in the tub?

Just a thought....
