The pair were electrocuted when they jumped into the pool after noticing the three teenagers were being shocked in the water.

Other personnel at the aqua park cut the electricity in the building.

The five victims were rushed to a hospital, however their hearts had already stopped due to the electrocution, according to the hospital.
