Help settling a small disagreement

[tater]

If someone is electrocuted, does it mean they die or just get shocked really bad (but still live through it)?

I know, pretty weak thread, but at least it's something. I'm sure it won't take long before it's all off the subject with crazy pictures (Sxy?), party plans, grossest things we've ever put in our mouth, or stories about silly things that happened this weekend.

I once met a guy years ago that had been struck by lightening. He had some really bad scars. Amazing he survived.

Oh, and I to have touched live wires and lived to tell about it.

It says if you get electrocuted and live, then you've been SHOCKED.
Shocked = survived to tell the story
Electrocuted = dead

Obviously, you and her were "SHOCKED", NOT electrocuted.

I'm shocked you didn't know that, DA

Sorry, Beach!

In the quest for truth, we take no hostages...

Isn't bobbing more fun, anyhow??

(This IS a euphemism for something more interesting, right??)
