Yep, this was the only (or one of the very few) unscripted accident that put him in danger. They are usually scripted and when they aren’t it’s just simple things like capacitor with inverted polarity etc It’s probably the only time where the channel could’ve ended…

[@DK-sg3oe]

@@marioghioneto1275 what happens if u connect a cap with inverted or change pos to neg i am not fm electrical field but u shd it blow up doesnt both plates the made of same material with dielectric inside or as insulator

[@bskull3232]

@@DK-sg3oe With a parallel plate capacitor, you can apply any polarity to it. With an electrolytic capacitor, no. Those capacitors are called electrolytic for a reason. Not because they electrolysis during normal operation (that would be a battery), but because electrolysis was used to manufacture them. You see, for a parallel plate capacitor, the thinner the dielectric, the more capacitance you get, so you want a thin dielectric. However, thin dielectrics have troubles adhering to conductor surfaces, so engineers came up with an idea, to grow the dielectric right on the conductor. In a typical aluminum electrolytic capacitor, the dielectric is a thin layer of aluminum oxide grown on top of a piece of aluminum foil. When the capacitor was first manufactured, the foil was rolled up and soaked in the electrolyte and at this moment there are no dielectric yet. Then, they gradually apply voltage on the terminals, which oxides the anode, forming a thin film on it. This process is called forming since forms the dielectric. The higher the forming voltage is, the thicker the dielectric is, thus the less the capacitance but the higher the rated voltage are. When you apply a reverse voltage too fast, the supposed anode becomes the cathode, and electrons flows towards it, thus reducing it back to aluminum. While in the same process the supposed cathode picks up an oxide layer, because the process is too fast, the oxide layer has too much defects making it not insulating. Now you have a capacitor with no dielectric, so you are essentially boiling water in it with resistive heating. A bang is thus inevitable.

Yeah, 'unplanned' is more apt than 'fake'. It's just a natural reaction to grab the thing falling towards you, but it could have been seriously bad. He grabbed it with both hands, if he had grabbed each electrode without the circuit shorting or breaking, high voltage could have went through one hand, into his heart and out the other. I've heard of a student that died putting together a Jacob's ladder for science fair, so the danger is real.

I'm an electrical engineer, I promise you that he likely doesn't look back on this fondly. With the energy (not really voltage or the current) involved, he had a decent chance of immediately dying then and there.

Electroboom: "I just want to celebrate" Breaker: "how about NO"

That's because his transformer uses 10 Amps of current and when it's shorted through the plasma it will draw more current than the 15 Amp limit on the breaker and it pops
