Survival of being swept through a hydroelectric dam?

I know that today most hydroelectric dams come with a mesh work on the pipe (pen stock) leading to the turbine. If, someone managed to get through the mesh and enter the pipe and was swept through the turbine unit and out into the basin bellow the dam, what would be the possibility of survival? Looking at picture of turbines, there is enough space between the blades to safely fit a human through them without being “chopped up”
I am saying that in looking at picture of the turbine looks like there maybe a a bit of space between the blades and the wall of the turbine shaft to safely fit a human through. Then you wont be chopped up and maybe survive the “trip”

I doubt anyone could ever fit through the turbine blades, survive the internal pressure within the pipe or hold their breath long enough to pass entirely through.

Sorry to rain on your parade.

S.O.L. Core Lite Survival Tool $15.94 S.O.L. Core Lite Survival Tool Core Lite A survival emergency isn’t just sitting and waiting – taking the right steps as soon as you realize you’re in a survival situation massively increases your chances of both surviving and getting rescued. The SOL Core Lite has been designed with these essential survival tasks in mind – the quintessential multifunction survival tool.The main feature of the Core Lite is its folding AUS-8 steel blade, which locks into place with a robust locking liner. The drop-point hollow-ground blade has been engineered to excel at survival tasks such as whittling, slicing, and tasks where blade control is essential. The combination of a long handle and short blade prevents the blade from getting unwieldy when you are making kindling for fire, cutting wet tree bark to expose dry inner wood, or notching and grooving branches in order to construct a shelter.When the sun goes down, your work doesn’t have to stop – a dual-battery ultra-bright LED light points down the blade for task cutting in the dark and will illuminate your camp when other light sources aren’t available. And, a 100db rescue whistle at the base of the knife handle signals rescuers to your location.A true survival tool is something you take with you on every trip, every time. To that end, it has to be light enough that it disappears in your pocket or in your pack until you need it most. At a scant 1.5 oz, you won’t even know the Core Lite is there until you need it.FEATURESAUS-8 locking blade is harder, holds an edge longer and sharpens easier than common steel blades.10 lumen LED light provides bright task lighting. Metal clip enables you to attach to your hat for headlamp style use!Rescue Howler Whistle features pealess, fail-safe design and up to 100db sound output.ABS handle provides the ideal mix of stength to lightweight aspect.Removeable battery cover for easy replacement.Weight: 1.4ozSize: 3.5″ x .875″ x .5″ IDEAL USES * Addition to Emergency or Survival Kit * Avid Hunters and Fishermen * Camping * Canoeing * Fishing or Hunting Vest * Hiking / Backpacking * Rafting and Kayaking Day Trips * Scouting Trips * Short Day Trips * Summer Camp Outings
