PUZZLE: (Read Carefully) (Lisez soigneusement)

Once there was a bus conductor, who was very rude to his passengers. One
day a beautiful young girl, of around 18 years, tried to board the bus,
but he didn't stop the bus. Unfortunately the beautiful young girl came
under the bus and died on the spot. Angry passengers took the conductor to
the police station, who in turn took him to the court. The judge was not
at all impressed with him and gave him capital punishment. He was taken to
the electrocution chamber. There was a single chair in the centre of the
room and a single banana peel at one corner of the room. The conductor was
strapped to the chair and high voltage current was given to him. But to
everyone's amazement, he survived. The judge decided to set him free, and
he returned to his profession.

After a few months, this time, a good looking middle aged woman tried to
board the bus but the conductor didn't stop the bus. Unfortunately, this
time also, the good looking middle aged woman came under the bus and died
on the spot. Again angry passengers took him to the police station, who in
turn took him to the court. The judge took one look at the conductor and
gave him capital punishment. The Bus conductor was taken to the same
electrocution chamber where there was a single chair in the centre of the
room and a single banana peel at one corner of the room. He was strapped
to the chair and high voltage current was given to him. This time also to
everyone's amazement, he survived. The judge decided to set him free, and
he returned to his profession.

A couple of months later, an elderly gentleman tried to board the bus.
This time the Bus conductor, remembering his earlier experiences, stopped
the bus. Unfortunately the elderly gentleman slipped and died due to his
injuries. The conductor was taken to the police station and then to the
court, to the same judge. Though he hadn't done anything wrong, but
considering his past record the judge decided to set an example and gave
him capital punishment. The Bus conductor was again taken to the same
electrocution chamber where there was a single chair in the centre of the
room and a single banana peel at one corner of the room. He was strapped
to the chair and high voltage current was given to him. This time he died
instantly!!!!!!!!!!!

The question is why didn't he die on the first two occasions, but died
instantly the third time??
Try to solve it yourself. This is rather interesting and answer is
perfectly logical.

If necessary read the puzzle once again.

-During the first two times, the conductor was a Bad Conductor, therefore
electricity didn't pass through him. But during the third time, he was a
good conductor, so electricity passed through him freely and he died.

It's about time you revised your Science lessons!!!
