The end sentence is hard to believe.. an eel can interpret a reflected electromagnetic pulse from many creatures at once within 5 feet and tell the difference in distance and size. Amazing its beyond imagination.
It's a 1954 video, but I still learned something. I'm not sure how good an idea it was to conduct that current through those people from arm to arm, across their heart. But I guess they lived.
4:57 reaches into pants, pulls out bag of fish. Seriously though this video was awesome educational and entertaining, alot better than most boring repetitive youtube videos. Reminds me abit of "Powers of Ten" old school science productions FTW
I saw another vid about 25 yrs ago in which they experimented with optics. Infact they fitted a man with glasses that would let him see the world upside down for some days (1 to 3 days) and they were able to interpret that the brain's optical function reverted to normal (that topside up) after that time. Pls correct me if I am wrong in the no of days (it was long ago you know) Can anybody point me the vid here on the net. That was something amazing.
Idk but look up Dwight Moody. That's who this guy is. He was an Evangelical, and at the end of each of his documentaries, he invited viewers to convert. It was a part of my homeschool as a kid

damn ive been looking for educational videos for electric eels and this 1954 footage is by far the most helpful on youtube today. haha

Seriously? My high school teachers always did these kind of shock experiments....
Never with a badass electric eel though.
