If the power is still on in a house that is flooded and someone walks in the water, why/how are they not electrocuted?

I keep seeing videos of people coming home to a burst pipe or the neighbors above them having a flood. The water pours down from the ceiling and from the light fixtures (lights are on), but the people walking around the house don’t get electrocuted.

Be careful of heaters on fish tanks. Tiny Crack in the glass of mine and I got a horrid shock when I was cleaning the tank with my hand two feet away. Always unplug power when touching fish tank water. It was filtered fresh water as well.
