Quoted: Is there any chance the clothing or hose would create a path to ground? I'd make sure the cables were isolated...oh, and the water hose too. It must all be isolated from ground. Perhaps we could attach the cables to a weather typ balloon that also suspended a massive bladder of water, then run the hose to the bladder. The balloon of course would be weighed perfectly to maintain the desired altitude. |

Would the water stream, after making contact with the fence or ground below, then create a dangerous situation? I'm not sure...perhaps an electrician can chime in. |

If we made the nozzle part of the hose out of rubber, I think we'd be good to go forward with the expiriment. |

No, depending on distance between nozzle and fence, the water stream would break up and not conduct. Mythbusters did it
