    Or a combination of water & a vast amount of electricity, I know which I'm siding with. Tha knows, metal hand rails throughout the entire length of the bridge, buzz buzz.

    I may not know too much about electrics but it strikes me that if the earthing in the electric box is so shoddy that a fault would result in the handrails being live, then they have bigger problems to fix than a bit of water.

    I'm no electrician but can't they just turn off the electricity?

    I'm no engineer, but for £12 million, can't they design and build it right in the first place? It's not as if it's been a rushed job either.

    It was all lit up yesterday.

    There was a bloke holding onto the hand rail - frazzled.
