Why does a boy flying a kite have more chance of getting electrocuted?

∙ 7y ago
A boy flying a kite has more chance of getting electrocuted if the kite accidentally touches a power line or other electrical source. The electricity can travel down the string and shock the person holding it. It's important to fly kites in open areas away from power lines to reduce this risk.
