why does the water uncloaks the pred?

[Nightmare]

we know that the cloaking works by bending light (not 100% sure cause it was a human who said it, until a pred does so well never know)

so why does water deactivate the cloaking? it only needs to touch the feet(p2 king willy scene) doesnt need to touch full body, right? or is the feet an important part of the cloaking system?

also in p1 when the wrist panel was damaged, the pred couldnt cloak anylonger, so cloaking is controled by the wrist pad. right?

give ur theorys about how coaking works and why it is deactivated.

Isn't it obvious?  The cloaking device that the Predators use isn't water-proof.

The water disrupts the field, just as it does any other electrical conductivity.
