Something has bothered me for some time. If a computer is submerged in water, and subsequently dried thoroughly, all this time without applying any power, would it still work?
I'm more impressed by his ability to keep the monitor and stuff perfectly level while still holding it over his head.

Depends on what impurities the water has. Distilled will be fine. Salt water is instant kill. Tap water, which is usually hard, has a chance of breaking it. But yeah, some people have rescued their electronics by letting them sun-dry while disconnected.
