Those spark generators were a real problem back in the 1980s and 90s. The kids would use them to freak out the arcade machines causing them to empty their hoppers, rack up free credits or simply destroy most of the internal logic boards.
I had not seen the dipole setup before, it's quite intriguing. I'd really like to find out how exactly that works. You could also use coins in a ziploc bag as an esd source.
That's not ESD though, none of the things in the video are generating ESD pulses. All this is EMI which is another thing you have to worry about, but still unrelated to *static* electricity.

Thanks for the great video and thanks to the algorithm for helping me find you. I’m going to be binging your content
Another amazing demonstration, could do with some additional explanation as to exactly why the dipole setup behaves the way it does
Seems like the size of the antenna on the o-scope would also be influencing the spectral content of the received signals...
Very nice technique, similar to the one used by Jagadish Bose in the 1890's to generate signals over 100 GHz!

Дуже цікаве відео. Якраз читаю книжку К. Ротхамеля "Антени".
I test with Van dr Graaf generator sparks

It's EMI caused by ESD :)
