In my humble opinion, i say you that from 48 volts to up with a low body electrical resistance (lower is about 5000 ohms, which is reached when the body is wet with conductive liquid, as water mixed with salt) resultant current can be deadly. But other factor is a basic law of electricity what says "electricity follows the easier path" so if you put a series of batteries like to have a higher voltage an put them into a pool filled with salted water the result will be only an electrolysis which occurs on the "super battery" poles that can be seen by the " victim" which is in the pool, ¿why? current flows from negative pole to positive pole directly without passing through the body (real direction of current, positive to negative direction is called conventional way). That´s what i know so please don´t defy me to get me into a pool with a thousand of batteries in series to probe that i´m right because i have no money for so many batteries... good luck!
