An extension cord, and no GFCI were the real culprit, but Apple has deeper pockets than the extension cord company.

It could easily have been the charger alone. 200 milliamps (0.2 amps) in the tub (basically throughout the body and across the heart) will kill. Older homes may not have GFCI in the bathrooms.
