That big shock, reminds me when I was under my desk unplugging a UPS to move it from my old power bar that I didn't trust and wanted to replace (it was rated for 12 amps, I prefer everything matches or is higher than the 15 amps of a wall outlet due to a fire in the past). The plug was being stubborn and I was twisting my body in an uncomfortable way to access it. To brace myself for balance I grabbed my desk, a steel desk, not thinking as I pulled out the plug and as it came out my finger slipped and touched one of the prongs. I didn't feel the shock in my hand or arms. I felt it in my chest back of my neck as that was pressed against part of the desk as well and ended up getting kicked back by it. My roommate was a paramedic and I yelled for them to come check me, said I took current across the chest and to give me a check over to confirm that my racing heart was just panic, I was having short term vision issues as well and wasn't able to move correctly and apparently had slurred speech. They looked me over and then informed me that it wasn't my heart that had them worried, it was that my breathing and voice told them my diaphragm was still acting up and my behavior meant my brain got some electroshock therapy. Took me 15 minutes to get to normal again. When I went back to work they grabbed a dog chain and forced me to use it to ground myself on the same arm that I was pulling plugs with.

Shocks where the current enter by one hand and leave by the other are the worst because the current passes right truth the hearth and make it stop for a time
I worked in a company making power supplies, when we did high voltage power supplies, they needed to be tested before they were potted, so we used flourinert this stopped all arcing, enabled us to probe for testing etc, it was truly a magical fluid, in your case, i'd have had the spark gaps just above the surface of the fluid, it looks mad, sticking high voltage electronics into what looks like water.

Whenever the lights flicker in Vancouver I wonder what Mehdi is up to. Edit: He posts the videos on his Pateron before they go live here. I strongly suggest supporting him!
i dont think he shocked himself on purpose in this video. High voltage at a point it gets incredibly painful and makes 120v and even 240v seem like a friendly flirt. i've been shocked by a capacitor circuit that felt like my arm was crushed. I could still feel it for hours as the pain slowly faded. it can cause some nerve damage as well. he gets squeamish in videos when he tries to shock himself on purpose. involuntarily throwing a screwdriver or striking a odd pose at break neck speed may be funny to you but its very painful and dangerous. it would be incredibly stupid to subject oneself to this kind of torture on purpose. if he said he's done it on purpose its likely not all true. its easy to forget a circuit is live when its doesn't do anything or while plugging it in.
Audible frequency of the voltage, like a tone or note. If you record it on a slow-mo camera, like 1/8x on most cell phones now, and then listen to the frequency with a piano tuner or instrument tuner, you can multiply it back by 8x and find out a rough frequency.
I don't know much so correct me if I'm wrong, it's definitely super painful and can burn skin and possibly nerves, but is is lethal? As the current is only going from one finger to the the next can that affect his heart?
i was soo scared this time because i was like what if it decides to arc to his head instead if he gets a tiny bit too close??? but hes smart and probably has the proper precautions in place
this marx generator implies that you could put many many more of these in a longer chain and get some truly massive arcs. it would probably even sound like a thunderclap too as it went off, but i imagine it would take a much longer time to charge fully. it would also probably be the super-sized equivalent of a bug zapper if you got too close, though.
Your heart is a muscle, it causes your muscles to contract and probably felt like he was having a heart attack. In fact an electric shock can cause cardiac arrest
Yeah actually, this was probably his most dangerous example yet, that shock was across his body, he really could have potentially caused harm to himself in this.
I have a feeling that he sets it up in a way that makes it less than lethal and always avoids situations that can create a circuit through himself to the ground, then gets shocked both on purpose and accidentally. High voltage discharges isn't what kills you, amps through your upper body does.
Brother,its good to know someone else beside myself knows what a high voltage DC kick feels like. I was working on a tesla coil I built from scratch and my primary was 15,500 vdc. I forgot to discharge my caps before reaching across the transformer and BOOM ! I got hit...sent me flying backward into my couch,where the couch and I slid an additional 4 feet backward across the wood floor. After I got over the shakes,all I could do was laugh...I was still alive,bwahahahaha!!! So...now that we are brothers of the high voltage scar,I am now subscribed.
There was a guy in my HS physics class that built a massive capacitor… like 3 feet (1 meter) long. It was similar to EB’s “tiny” capacitor in that it was aluminum foil rolled up with wax paper as the dielectric. He charged it up, and because in and of itself the charging doesn’t appear impressive, he decided to discharge it… himself. It threw him about 7 feet onto the floor. The class was impressed, he was… ‘ok’… and I believe he got an “A”. Come to think of it… that very well may have been ElectroBOOM…!
He's far too knowledgeable to receive an accidentally electric shock. That means He's deliberately allowing himself to get shocked for our entertainment. As an ex electrical engineer, who had received _many_ electric socks, I can tell you they are extremely painful. This means the presenter is damn brave to allow himself to get zapped. He must have balls the size of coconuts.
My father was a cardiologist and I am an electrical engineer. You'd be surprised at how small a shock can kill you. My father had a patient one time that received a non fatal electric shock and hours later presented at emergency with a serious cardiac arrhythmia. Had he not made it to emergency his heart would have been beating erratically until it killed him days later.
This 15 year old (well 15 in 1966) made a rolled foil and capacitor for a 15kv neon sign spark gap interrupter to feed a home wound Tesla coil. It held up for about 10 seconds before burning through similar to shown here. My injury from it was noting electrical but a slip while stabbing into it with a pointy kitchen knife. I managed to cut through the nerve at the middle joint of my left index finger. Other than the first instant there was no real pain and no sensation for that front 2 inches of the finger. The Doc put in 1 stitch but said there was nothing more he could do. Then about 1/4 inch per month sensation progressively returned as the nerve obviously regenerated. In less than a year it was all back to normal except for times i would accidentally hit that spot and for a second it would fell like I was getting stabbed again. That gradually declined and hasn't happened in the last few years. Anyway ElectroBoom show many of the electrical dangers but also be ware of other side effect accidents!
Warning: Always Discharge Capacitor with enought high Capacitance and Voltage combination.. Exactly same happened to myself while disasembling old Xenon Flash Camera while forgetting to discharge the HiVoltage Capacitor in that circuit.. Almost went to Void being for a moment +10.000V Human Spark Gap..
@@martinvizar6430 Not always. If the capacitor had only a few picofarad, you can take a harmless electrical "shock" even at tenthousands of Volts. Its not first the voltage, but the energy storaged in the capacitor. Always: keep secure!

Come to think of it… that very well may have been ElectroBOOM…!
Anything for the A
How did an electric discharge throw him back?, did he discharge it with a pipe bomb?
Thank god he didn't get an L
Why would it push him back though?
ElectroBOOm origins story
8:33 sound lick a silencers 😂😂 so dangerously funny 😂😂
He's far too knowledgeable to receive an accidentally electric shock. That means He's deliberately allowing himself to get shocked for our entertainment. As an ex electrical engineer, who had received _many_ electric socks, I can tell you they are extremely painful. This means the presenter is damn brave to allow himself to get zapped.
He must have balls the size of coconuts.
yeah . content creators man ...
true
He definitely has some genuine shocks, but I think he intentionally ignores some basic safety
My father was a cardiologist and I am an electrical engineer. You'd be surprised at how small a shock can kill you. My father had a patient one time that received a non fatal electric shock and hours later presented at emergency with a serious cardiac arrhythmia. Had he not made it to emergency his heart would have been beating erratically until it killed him days later.
Wow!
Where can I get eletric socks!
They sound cool!
0:56, Never have I seen a man move so fast
Da flash
@@Casper.109 this made more sense than it should have
Him grabbing his chest right afterwards is a nice touch.
@@MrJamesonStyles its probably because it hurted there too
Omg
7:46 dude literally just made a beat with capacitors
lmfao
Better then my school marching band
Yeah, that was one of the best electric show I've ever seen in real life. for real!
He has a tesla coil that literally plays music through arcs... so.. yeah..
9:09 I don't know if anyone can hear it too but for me it's A Thousand Miles (a least a part of it)
4:12 🤣 At work long ago we put charged capacitors everywhere to shock our collegeas 😂 Boy that was fun...

you can tell his body had an involontary response there.
My friend at work showed me this guy I love his content. Your fans love you electric boom
2:18 ah yes I love when capacitors scream.
Ye s*8t

It looks like it's for anal torture
At 7:50 the tesla coil picked up some charge and started arcing.
He is a good tutor, explains things plain, simple and clearly...
pain instead of plain

Shockingly clearly
@@Tyvian135 lmao
.. and painfully.
Was literally waiting for him to hold the capacitor with bare hands. Made my day😂😂
I know he does it as a joke to show us what NOT to do but I still hated it 😂 I get so nervous watching him lol
Don't spoil bro😅

@@finn4281 yeah..dont he know the redstone block,redstone,piston and more😂😂😂
This 15 year old (well 15 in 1966) made a rolled foil and capacitor for a 15kv neon sign spark gap interrupter to feed a home wound Tesla coil. It held up for about 10 seconds before burning through similar to shown here. My injury from it was noting electrical but a slip while stabbing into it with a pointy kitchen knife. I managed to cut through the nerve at the middle joint of my left index finger. Other than the first instant there was no real pain and no sensation for that front 2 inches of the finger. The Doc put in 1 stitch but said there was nothing more he could do. Then about 1/4 inch per month sensation progressively returned as the nerve obviously regenerated. In less than a year it was all back to normal except for times i would accidentally hit that spot and for a second it would fell like I was getting stabbed again. That gradually declined and hasn't happened in the last few years. Anyway ElectroBoom show many of the electrical dangers but also be ware of other side effect accidents!

Underrated comment
Or when your crazy ex barges in
It seems he'll get high from high voltage. ;-)
Warning: Always Discharge Capacitor with enought high Capacitance and Voltage combination..
Exactly same happened to myself while disasembling old Xenon Flash Camera while forgetting to discharge the HiVoltage Capacitor in that circuit..
Almost went to Void being for a moment +10.000V Human Spark Gap..
@@martinvizar6430 Not always. If the capacitor had only a few picofarad, you can take a harmless electrical "shock" even at tenthousands of Volts. Its not first the voltage, but the energy storaged in the capacitor.
Always: keep secure!
