Light it up!
[The experiments are performed by experts and under professional supervision
They are made with a long preparation and risk assessment phase.
For your safety, do not try this at home.
Tell me, this thing pulls out 1 million volts, right? - Yeah.
Don't you want to roast some stuff? - Sure do.
Don't you wanna...
- Hell yes, I want it to burn, to explode, ha ha!
[Euphoria]
Hi there it's Patrick Shaken, today I'm joined with Christophe, from Arc Ethic!
- The viking!
So we built this Tesla coil.
Basically, in a tesla coil...
you get some electromagnetic resonance phenomenon and you end up with an output of 1 million volts!
Quick test, just to get an idea.
Wah, woohoo!
We'll probably start slow with... a neon tube.
Let's see what happens when you bring a neon tube close to it.
A small one.
I'm gonna fry! - Not me!
Alright, turn it on.
- Let's go!
So the neon lights up, but if you want to hold it closer, go ahead! I'll take the command center.
Ha ha ha!
Wow!
That's what I call talent, definitely talent right there.
- What I'm not telling anyone is that I had sparks going through my toes.
[Laughter]
So actually, it's the radiation coming out of the coil that ionizes the gas inside.
- Exactly, the electric radiation.
The electric part of the electromagnetic radiation ionizes the gas.
And some electric current simply flows through the tube, as the lightning tends to reach the ground.
As I'm connected to it, it goes through the tube, through my hand... - Yeah, it's a closed circuit.
That's awesome!
Don't you want to... Weren't you talking about gas?
- Yeah I'd like some, hum...
Wait.
So I'm out of acetylene - don't know why I don't have anymore at home...
- Yeah, ok...
How about a small balloon to celebrate this?
- Show me?
And don't try this kind of bullshit at home!
I think they don't have a tesla coil anyway, yeah we're safe.
- I'll stand right... Behind the desk.
I'll stand right... Behind you. [Laughter]
I think it's starting to - sorry - [Madman voice] I think it's starting to look good!
What is this sound!? Listen.
Wow, the butane is so much denser than air that it feels like there's a mass of water inside.
Check that out! It's awesome!
- Catch it!
- Your idea is so dope. - This thing is gonna blow to our faces, that's awesome.
- Alright, you're ready? Give me the pig tail.
3... 2... 1...
0!
I just lost my eyebrows! - That was hot!
Popopopo, that's crazy!
That went up to the trees' height.
That was at least 8 meters high!
I felt my eyebrows heating up! Aren't they curly now?
- Behind this sheet I could feel such a heat! It was like opening an oven.
3...
2...
1...
0.
Wooooh!
[Laughter]
My pants are heating up!
- The coil, wait a second...
A second one for the road, we had to!
Let's move on to the next stuff now.
So for this next experiment, we'll calm down a bit, but temporarily, huh?
Oh! I'd call that David against Goliath - the plasma globe versus the tesla coil.
Let's see what it looks like.
Ready?
Yeah. - Here we go!
It's splendid!
Look at the bottom, the bottom!
- I've got to say, this plasma globe is very resistant.
But it looks so good!
I am impressed.
Wow it's really hot.
Hmm, smell inside.
Show me? It stinks like...
Oh yeah it smells like ozone.
For the next experiment, I don't know where Baptiste has gone...
What is this?
Hey, I brought back the corpse!
What do you want to do with this?
What do you think?
We ain't gonna eat it!
Let's burn this thing!
Next experiment, the cathode ray tube!
I hope there's a good show tonight on TV.
This is for Debby, we said we wanted a clear image. - Oh no!
Fine! Look, see how it pours yellow?
Let's go!
[The sparks go along the glass to reach the metal casing]
Do you know what I saw? Flash news!
Well, this one's done its job.
But yet I think we still need to know what would happen if we throw sparks at some electronics.
So right here is a very very old motherboard,
that is simply going to play its role of guinea pig.
Do we really need to explain? No, let's plug it in.
Go ahead, viking!
[Laughter]
The spark gap's gone away! - It's at the neighbor's house now!
It went in the forest... Oh no it's right there!
The spark gap just rolled away!
Actually THIS was the experiment!
Debby was fed up!
It's totally unscathed! Oh maybe... - Yeah it took a beating.
It's gonna be fine...
The next experiment contains a scene of electrocution that may shock a sensitive audience.
Our voluntary friend is about to walk towards the arcs and react violently. If you do not wish to see this, please skip to 7:36 is the video.
For prevention reasons, we want to demonstrate how dangerous Tesla coils can be.
This is not actor's play.
Well, that's nice and all but I'm feeling a bit starving now.
Don't you want a nice roasted chicken? - Yeah I love chicken.
Especially Belgian chicken.
[Nico] Am I the chicken?
You're the chicken! - Oh yes you are!
This experiment is pretty straightforward, we're going to run the coil,
and our friend Nicolas, voluntary...
He doesn't look very reassured though! - He looks so convinced!
He's about to take 1 million Volts. - It's just a million.
Let's see what it's like.
Turn your head opposite to it, like this yeah.
Look at me, look towards me at all time.
You're going Nico? Alright, come!
Seriously?
[Pain moaning]
Oh, you alright Nico?
- Wait wait stop, are you ok?
- He's ok... [4 minutes to get back up later]
You alright?
[Nico] I took it all in the leg.
It hit you right there, and there... - No, it was right there.
And then it went down in my leg...
- Holy shit Nico...
I didn't see a white flash, it was all black.
So you must not try this at home, do you get it now?
- You scared the shit out of me!
Oh shit, I'm a roasted chicken.
[Nico] Oh, my abs!
Hey, you know what?
When you were lying down, I felt your abs,
I think they've never been so hard before.
So this thing is not joking around!
- However now, one thing,
What you need to do, is go drink or eat a spoonful of salt.
I'm being serious, this is real ok? - Fine.
Because actually you loose a lot of electrolytes like this,
and you need to charge back up, alright?
Hey, go bwak bwak bwak!
My prosthesis, I felt my leg doing something I can usually not do.
[Christophe giggles]
For real, damn my abs hurt!
I'm gonna suffer!
Ok now it's time for...
Now it's your turn, huh!
Hey, you fried him, now it's time for you to fry!
Next experiment, we're frying the frier. But in a different way...
I believe we're gonna have a nice bath.
Fortunately this is your job, because damn...
I think the idea is pretty clear.
You're going in the pool, we're sending the sparks and you're gonna stay inside, right?
- Exactly.
- But then how do you know this isn't dangerous in the first place?
- We connected it to the ground first.
There's what's called the skin effect,
beforehand I am going to dip myself in water
and the current will flow and diffuse is water - theoretically.
- Ok, so as this is working with high frequencies,
the current should pass though the surface of your skin that is wet,
and down to the ground immediately.
First we're going to test with the right hand.
Why the right one? It's to prevent the heart from fibrillating.
- Yeah, ok. #NiceAmbience
And we're gonna go progressively!
Just a reminder, this guy there, tesla coils are his job.
So he know what he's doing, he kind of masters high voltage.
- Ha ha, with the helmet!
Go ahead, turn on the coil!
Go!
Light it up!
Again!
Ouch, ho ho ho ho!
Come at me!
I'm a viking, me!
Ah!! Ho ho ho ho!
How does it feel then?
Well, that's some serious electro-therapy right there!
- Where do you feel it exactly?
In the back, here behind...
I feel it coming down the legs actually.
All that's immersed in water, I feel it spreading...
It goes here, then spreads here in the water.
Damn, you crazy bastard!
- Nicely done, I have to say bravo!
- You're crazy, you're totally mad.
And now at 4:30 AM, I'm swimming in ExperimentBoy's pool.
And bam, on the skull! Roasted!
See you around then! - Bye, see ya!
- How does revenge feel like, Nico?
It kind of relaxes the abs. - It relaxes your muscles, right?
- Yeah, I noticed you... accumulated some tension just now.
No no, don't you throw my in the water with the coil please, I'm fine.

Thanks again for all that we've done and... - See you next time?
Bye bye!
