At 6:46 - he's literally touching the tip of the electrode as he replaces it & no issue (& yes it is still live), even if he touches the tip of the electrode whilst its welding, the chances of death are low as the anode/pile are the grounded to the welding circuit & the current is more likely to still flow directly through them. The danger is if his hand or body touches the anode or pile whilst he is not welding & the electrode is close to shorting through him into the anode or pile closing the welding circuit - just don't ever make personal physical contact with the grounded welding metal. I use to do this type of work & sometimes if the grounding surface is so so, your teeth would vibrate/shatter from the electric current flowing as you weld.

Imagine doing it with no floor beneath you and currents moving you around. Besides that, the bubbles reduce visibility along with the unclear water. Also salt water is a lot more conductive to air, so if it's not close enough to the anode it can shoot arks out.
