It is extremely common that these showers are installed visibly ungrounded which is extremely dangerous by developed country standards. It's common to feel a tingling sensation while showering if you are in any way tall (over 175cm).

That said, it's obviously something millions of people live with, so it's still relatively safe in grand terms.

Why does the user's height make a difference?

Closer to the shower head, less resistance from the water.
