NOOOOOOOOOOOO.



Boy, you must have a loooooooooooooooooong electric cord! or Is you bathroom on top of the frozen pond?



That is what is so nice with hypotheticals.



Seriously. frozen ice is not pure ice which means there are dissolves salts or charged particles. These charged particles is what makes the current flow. Thus, Yesssssssssss.



And don't even try.



Now, PURE water will not conduct electricity.

I always wear rubber boots when drying my hair out in the middle of the pond.



You can never be too safe.

Well, the hot air from the hair dryer will melt the ice and you'll plunge into the icy water. When the electric hairdryer hits the water, you'll be electrocuted, as well as dying of hypothermia.
