So the bus conductor did not die because there was no electricity.In addition, the first two case, the banana skin was facing with the skin facing down. i.e. white colour. This means that the main breaker for the chair is OFF. The electrician have use this method to tell people that it safe to work on the chair. Now, you wouldnt want to strap a person to the chair when the main breaker is ON. Somebody could accidentally throw the switch during strapping the guy and might also injure innocent bystander. So practice safety first..  In the third case, the bus conductor die. why? simple. you see.. the elderly gentlemen is the electrician. He is the one who slipped and die when the conductor stopped the bus. So when the conductor got the chair again, this elderly technician was not there to OFF the switch when the strapped the conductor onto the chair. (Note; You should not work on live equipment. It is not safe). Hence, when they throw the switch, the conductor die instantly. It has nothing to do do with a bad conductor or good conductor. Electricity will flow regardless of the resistance. Air is a good resistance but it will breakdown when the potential difference is great enough. This is what we call lightning. Moral of the story: Have a professional person to do the job.
