Pool Pros... :killingme:



... and Amateurs! :rotflmao:



Sorry, I just couldn't resist it! :rotflmao1::rotflmao1:

I don't get it. The obvious answer would be something like amateurs drive nicer cars, pros sleep in them.

Aren't you silly? It's very clear what he's saying; Pro-Players enjoy the company of at least 5 other half-naked men while using an orange extension to power their electric griddle which is floating on an air mattress.

Amateur players enjoy only 1 other half-naked man in the pool and use a white extension cord to power their electric griddle which is sitting on a table.

This is what I got out of it:D.

I dunno about "pros". I'm thinking more like dumb and dumber. Who runs an electrical device into a pool?


Eric >use a propane grill, dumbasses
 
In America, in the absence of a clear definition of what constitutes a pro, the difference isn't clear.

Thanks for that post. Couldn't stop laughing! Almost spit the coke anywhere...
 
Those are 220 powerstrips. For a given device, the amperage is half of our 110. So you can relax, it's not voltage but the current (amperage) that kills you . :-)

Absolutely true, but amperage being equal the 220 will kill you faster!

All joking aside, I think these pics are just made up for show.... I very seriously doubt they are really grilling in a pool with an electrical connection floating on a shoe.

I would bet a small amount of money that isn't plugged in.

current is voltage divided by resistance....your body's resistance in the pool is constant....double the voltage....double the current.

That's what I was thinking. I bet the people in the bottom pic were really grilling while the ones in the top were not. There are some stupid people in this world.
 
I'm betting neither group is running power

I'm betting neither group is running power. It takes less than one amp to kill you. Skin resistance is vastly decreased in water plus any scratch or scrape will lower skin resistance something like twenty times. I had to do the technical illustrations for a report on the subject but that has been over two decades ago, details are a bit sketchy. I did make a note to stay out of water around electricity and to assume broken skin. I had to snatch a twelve volt battery out of a foot and a half of salt water many years ago. It hurt a lot!

Well, guys, I could've just posted the 2nd pic in the "funny pictures thread"...

... but I found both pics - and just couldn't resist (while both are hilarious) to set it on top with a pool related ironic headline...


Also had in mind "is it better to use a closed or an open bridge" (looking at the electrical device)!
 
You have to be pretty close to the source if current in the pool for it to actually do anything.

The real issue here is the fact that the board is going to fry, and short their fuses, damage their wiring, and ruin their lunch!
