Reminded me of Florida housing. Back when I was growing up our neighborhood was made by idiots. My house, my homies house, and my exes house all had a butchered electrical system. Ours was a hallway, my buds was the kitchen lights, and my exes was her room and the guest room. Her rooms did the same thing as that video.
This could not have been timed more perfectly, the exact moment you get shock at 11:05, the power of the entire neighborhood went off. Took me a good 2 sec to realise it wasn't the video's fault.
If a hand is able to block the radiation, it's probably just a little alpha emitter. Probably not dangerous in short term exposures. Really only dangerous to the eyes. I'd be more concerned about the toxicity of the stuff inside. Assuming of course they didn't just fake the footage by adding some static in post production.
If it was an alpha source, the camera lens would have been sufficient to block the radiation from the sensor. It was admitted to be fake, but it's also obviously fake.
Please do a video on Variac variable Transformers and Isolation Transformers. I was a lineman for 30 years, I understand the air core of isolation and what the argument is about 3 wire plugs but at the substation or even the house panel the ground and neutral are on the same buss. What could make either of these lab tools safer because I see both as deadly. Anyways I love your content, obviously so does 5.4mil others.
The graphite as an electrode I can confirm. Not the video itself there was obviously slag from an actual welding rod but I've used graphite electrodes with an old 240v Ac transformer welder to melt mostly copper. The arc it creates can melt steel but really only enough for welding unless you get some insane insulation. Edit: forgot to add you need to grab those 6v zinc carbon batteries you see at home Depot, Menards, Lowe's, ect. They have carbon rods maybe 25cm in length and 5cm diameter. I always keep them on hand and when the 6v batteries are gone the carbon rods are still useful.
I think you're off on your conversions, at least the diameter (5cm is 2 inches), and I assume you meant the total length of all 4 rods. From videos I've seen I would guess each rod is maybe 8cm long, 8mm diameter, but I've never taken one apart myself.
There was a Japan-only PS1 game called "Irritating Stick" that was based on the concept of getting shocked if you let a stick touch the sides of a metal maze you guided it through. I've heard it was based on an actual Japanese game show, but was never able to confirm.
That PS1 game was a port of an arcade game (The Irritating Maze) that used a trackball connected to some air jets. The trackball added difficulty and the air jets simulated the electric shock in a safer way. But yes, I'm fairly certain the idea is much older than even that.
Can you do long sparks in a smoke field and if we could see the turbulence causing the sparks to shift when jumping longer distances? It would be interesting to see if this would allow us to see this.
Medhi, you need to revisit the bathroom. When he replaced the fan he opened the neutral on a multi wire branch circuit. It's dangerous and we might have to rectify a house fire later.
6:35 They maybe could have copied you, but I’ve also seen this kind of electric shock thing on other game shows from a while ago. I’m not sure if it’s the first, but a Japanese game show had a segment called Irritating Stick (or something of that nature), with a pretty similar device and premise, and that was from the 90s.
also, the device was featured in a Mr. Bean episode back in the 90s, the one with the school open house which ended with his Mini being run over by a tank
car can't runs with water but in modern engines water injected can increse the efficiency by cool down the combustion, it is the main way to not use boring scr systems wich is in development in big engines which can't have a urea vessel like in cars
The radioactive one left me speechless. I hope they didn't play with it a whole lot. Especially touching the container with his skin. Edit: good to hear it's fake.
The whole thing with the carbon rod is definitely possible as it isn't a new concept, before acetylene torches were commonly available they used to sell arc welders with a "carbon arc torch" attachment witch was just a holder for two carbon rods just like what you see in the video, anyway the purpose was pretty much the same as an acetylene torch so you could braise or heat up rusty hardware to get it to move, I've attempted to braise with one and it doesn't work the greatest but I also had nobody to teach me how to use it and couldn't find any tutorials on the internet.
I had heard some dude invented a car that runs on water, but oil companies kill him on a tea party by poisoning his tea cause their share price will go down.
As for the motor in 12:20, someone made a video showing why it is impossible but basicaly the power generated by the motor (which was running with a mix of gas and O and H) was less than the power required to separate the oxygen and hydrogen in the water.
As long as the electrolysis cycle is productive enough and ‘buffered’ by a battery, I’m pretty sure the thing will run for a good few minutes - depending on the capacity of the battery. Charging it from the generator might add some short amount of extra run time, but once the battery is dead - game over.

You don't need that much power to melt an extension when coiled - when it is it becomes a large air cored inductor - powering something like a welder for extended periods will cause it to melt.
4:02 the ac light switch 1 And the light switch 2 And an socket with a connected hairdryer the sockets connected to switch 2 And switch 2 is connected to switch 1 I did this kind of shi" a few months ago
Every once in a while you run into someone who believes engine can run on water except the big oil companies arranged that they are not available because otherwise they could not make money.
A lot of people believe the water engine device because ‘technically’ combustion of hydrogen produces more energy than electrolysis of water, except around 43kJ of that energy are unusable (don’t make me remember my thermodynamics lectures to say why haha), so the actual energy you can get out of combustion of hydrogen is the same as the energy required to electrolyse the amount of water to produce that hydrogen, and that’s assuming 100% efficiency, which never exists.
I am Automotive tech. water is only meant to cool down the engine. they used distilled water to cool engines before coolant was made but they notice it didn't work well and made coolant instead
those hydroxide generators are a bit dangerous, i tried some years ago with a glass jar and the psu i scavenge out of a large printer, first it was fun, but i forgot and let it on and the jar exloded when i turned a drill near it
Pretty sure the radiation one is fake, simply because anyone who could get their hands on something that hot must know what they are dealing with. That sort of thing doesn't just turn up at a garage sale, and cameras aren't /that/ sensitive to radiation. Also wrong sort of noise.

Re: bathroom outlet puzzle. Older houses were wired with switched outlets on the same circuit as the light. That made it less likely for a person to leave things like hair dryers on and walk away, creating a fire hazard. This looks to be one of those houses, but the guy accidentally wired in the outlet parallel to the switch. It is possible that the former fan switch was sort of like a main switch for the whole bathroom, turning everything on/off with the former mirror light switch also controlling the outlet.
@@JeskidoYT MWBC is a “ multi-wire branch circuit”. It’s when two circuits share the same neutral wire back to the panel. The two hot conductors are 180 or 160 degrees out of phase so the neutral can’t be overloaded. Look it up and you will find plenty of diagrams. In this situation the two circuits that share the neutral will appear to act bizarre if the neutral connection is lost hence why I think that’s what happened in the bathroom. In the U.S. and Canada it’s unusual to have the bathroom lights on the same circuit with the outlet. But they could absolutely be two separate circuits sharing a neutral aka MWBC. Hope this helps.
Also the perfect example of why people shouldn't mess with their house wiring unless they are actually competent..... no one would dare touch the gas (ie natural gas for the North American viewers, not petrol) pipes without knowing what they are doing yet messing with electrics is seen as ok even though the risk of injury or death are just as high..... or worse higher when it 'looks' like everything is working but a crappy joint you made and hid in the wall slowly gets worse and causes a random fire 2yrs down the line when you least expect it, or potentially no longer even live there anymore........
I've had a similar issue like the "Light Switch Puzzle", and it wrecked my brain. Turned out to be a open/floating main neutral. Very confusing and very dangerous!
A floating neutral shouldn't be dangerous since all the touchable metal parts should be connected to ground. So this fault should not be a danger to anyone - unless you don't have a proper electric installation.

So I'll try to keep it short. I've been watching you for a long time because I always liked electronics since I was little. But watching your videos, made me more and more interested. And, this year, I started university, studying Electronics Engineering. So, a very big Thank You for making all this stuff. I will always continue watching. Keep making such content. Someone else might also get inspired.
Same, though I'm on my final undergraduate year.
AvE and BigClive also played a significant role.
I need to get an oscilloscope though. Been looking for a cheap second hand one.
I thought you were imprisoned for trying to be the soul king
@@daviddavidson2357 yeah. I don't have much tools either. I hope you find one tho.
@@balint2559 nah
Good luck (and great choice!) on your studies! :)
