I was watching CSI. It is a great show.

Some guy falls 12 floors. His drill has been shorted and the ground
plug has been cut.

CSI says the GFCI is useless without the ground plug. false

The GFCI might trip before the shock kills you but you can still fall
off the ladder

You may be right. I have never experienced a shock from a device
plugged into a GFCI.

I have heard that a GFCI manufacturer has a video of a person jumping
into a pool with an electrical appliance that has been plugged into
their GFCI.
