There was a similar case on helicopter heroes a while back. Yachtsman in the channel being zapped every minute. Try winching him into a chopper.

Don't think I'll be watching that then - thanks for the warning.......

Not that I have an ICD...

I'm hoping they have some comforting words for those of us with ICD who dread the day it goes wrong.
