I would do it. But I'm skeered of deep water. No thanks.

I've heard under water welding messes with your depth perception as well.
 
This thread is labeled wrong should read FUNNY AS HELL! I'm an electrician so we get shocked all the time but hearing yall describe it is FUNNY. BTW unless you are stuck in the middle of nowhere with a tank chasing you I wouldn’t weld while wet. While operating correctly the welder only puts out like 20 volts but a now possibly wet welder and my luck for my junk to break at the worst time. Broke doesn’t all ways mean not working but not working correctly.
 
I tought the Marines how to stickweld off of three truck batteries while the batteries were still in the trucks and did get a tingle every now and then with your knee on damp ground. But you can burn in some pretty thick stuff if you know what you are doing!
