Answer:
Pure water is a poor conductor of electricity, but the water in oceans lakes and rivers always contains dissolved salts. Salts are formed with ionic bonds, and when dissolved in water, the ions are separated by the electric fields of the polar ends of water molecules. These ions in water conduct electricity to extents that depend on their concentrations.
It's never a good idea to count on water being pure or even "deionized ," if there is a potential danger. No matter how low the concentration of ions is to start with, once you get part of your body in the water, salts from your skin will dissolve and make the water a significant conductor of electricity.
