Like this video or you will be cursed by the ghost of the wailing hotdog!👻 Have you ever accidentally shocked yourself? put the story down below! Instagram-> instagram.com/backyardscientistofficial/ Twitter-> twitter.com/ChemicalKevy
Hey! This is my business! Also, first I was a bit disappointing you used a stick to short the plug to the can instead of your hand. But then you actually held the can and plug in your hands! I'm proud of you... for staying alive as well!!
Medhi! Can you explain why the short, double male cord plugged into both outlets did nothing? The one from the thumbnail. What would happen if the wires were flipped in one end when it was plugged back into the outlet?
Those extension cords he made are also referred to as suicide cords because it’s two male ends. When I worked for Lowe’s each Christmas I’d have customers asking for an adapter to make two male ends to add to their lights. Each year I had to explain that no such thing exist because it’s extremely dangerous.
How did they envision it being useful is my question. The lights all use a plug anyway, and a power strip should always come with it's own plug, too, so unless they just had a power strip that lost it's plug lying around and got a genious idea to power it using male-to-male connector, I really don't understand it
@@echoplots8058 Hardly. It could have been dangerous if he took the hot in one hand and neutral in the other since the current would go straight through the heart, possibly leading to a heart attack but other than that, you can use a finger to bridge the two leads and the most you'll get is a good shock. Electricity can potentially be quite dangerous but it's not inherintly going to kill you just 'cause you get shocked.
@@inflatablewolfie I always get nervous around electricity. I had a good friend who climbed an electric pylon when he was drunk. He survived against all odds, but it made me apprehensive against this kind of stuff.
Back in the 80's, I used to work on huge UHF television transmitters. So big, you literally walk around inside the circuit. There are a series of keys to get inside. First, you turn off the main switch, which opens a little sliding door with a lock inside, with a key in it. You cannot take the key out until you turn the lock, which locks the sliding door over the switch so no one can get to it, and then you can pull the key out. You take that key across the room and it lets you turn off the cooling fans and other auxillary equipment, trapping the first key and revealing another. There are like three or four more keys in all, the last of which turns off the main power breakers, and gives you the key that opens the transmitter "cabinet" door so you can go inside. In there are capacitors the size of suitcases, and inductors the size of trashcans, and a certain giant vacuum tube (called a klystron) the size of a refrigerator, surrounded by magnetic coils the size of truck tires. There are four klystrons: two for the video carrier, one for audio, and one for standby. When you open the door, hanging right in the center of the doorway is a 3ft long fiberglass stick with copper ball on the end. We called it the "thunder stick". Its hanging in the center of the door so that you can not walk through without either picking it up, or dodging it. You take that stick (by the fiberglass insulator) and go around touching the copper ball to certain points to make sure they are not live nor have any residual charge left on them. I did this every time I entered for like five years, and nothing ever happened, so I go used to the routine. Then one day when you least expect it....KAPOW!!! ...and I found myself sitting on my arse with ears ringing, acrid smoke curling in the air, a bright after-image in my eyesight, unable to say anything except "God damn!" I had to take a long break and doublecheck everything before I would go back in there. Those big capacitors have bleeder resistors that drain the charge off of them (by the time you finaly go through all those keys to get in). Except this time, the bleeder resistor had failed, and the cap still had a full charge on it. "Thank God for the Thunder Stick!" As an electronics tech, i rarely ever shocked myself, but I had things blow up in my face many times. Im glad that time the thunder stick took it, because that one most likely would have been fatal. I do not miss working on big powerful transmitters. Dangerous as hell.
The only time I could fully say I've shocked/electrocuted myself was back in high school when my hand grazed an outlet while trying to plug something in. I adore this memory because after feeling weird for a while I went to the nurse and got to awkwardly say "So this will sound weird.....but I think I electrocuted myself?" And got to see her face go through so many expressions at once
A couple of years ago I was taking panoramic pictures on the roof of my department building and a storm rolled in but I said just a couple more with this awesome weather, good thing I have my tripod and umbrella. Long story short, suddenly and for half a second everything went white with light and I felt a shock on the arm that I was using to hold the umbrella, it was string but I don't burn or anything, the shock made me throw the umbrella but other thant that I was fine (my whole arm was tingling for a while tho)
Actually, you certainly did NOT electrocute yourself. By definition, if you had... then you would have been dead thus not be able to walk to see the nurse! Saying that you shocked yourself was correct indeed. In any case, I would have liked to see her face too! Best non-electrocutioning wishes! - Max Giganteum
I've shocked myself dozens of times. My dad was an HVAC guy, and he taught me alot of stuff when I was a kid, but electrical was what I liked the most. So I'd always be wiring things up with spare parts in the garage. I was always careful, but I was also 10 years old, so mistakes were inevitably made. The best one though was when I unplugged the dryer and plugged it back in just for fun. My finger was touching a prong and that was the only 240v shock I've ever had. It was pretty wild. My whole arm was vibrating for about an hour.
My first (and sadly not my last) shock was when I tried to repair my HiFi amp at the age of 11 and managed to lean on the mains at the entry point to the amp... that was fun. That feeling of being shocked to the bone is so unique.
Apparently, electricians call that a "suicide cable," lol. People sometimes use them to connect a generator to their house's wiring. --Which is a really bad idea, BTW. You should do it properly with a transfer switch because if you forget to turn off your main breaker your generator sends electricity back out to the lines, which can electrocute a line worker. So, it actually ought to be called a "homicide cable."
Me: Jamie pull that up Girl: Who's Jami- Me: We will never know.. Edit: I was just posting that for fun but ppl like high ranking cult member had to just ruin the fun. Thanks high ranking cult member, you just ruined my day.
Should've used the pie formula and divide the 58 with 4 in the bracket then multiply with 0.044 last, rounded and carry it. If you wondering how it look like it's this 3.14(58/4)×0.044= The 3.14 is the pie. Your IQ is 30 if you solve this.
Having experimented with high voltage this entire video is giving me a heart attack. I would have like a dozen more safety features. Even just a switch on the end of the stick could prevent some disaster
Were the shoes actually enough to prevent a shock from the outlet? I figured it would raise the resistance substantially, but not enough to prevent any serious shock
Yeah I haven’t really experimented with voltage but why was he waving his hand right next to a live charge, I would stay at least a rulers length away from it
@@Account64000 It's only 110V. A spark needs about 10,000V per cm to jump through air. I suppose you might worry that your hand might accidentally swipe against it if you get too close but in theory if he's got normal control of his muscles, he's safe enough. The rubber shoes are enough to insulate him from the earth, so there's no path there for the live voltage to run through. Only from live to neutral, so he'd have to touch both prongs at once, as he said. Yeah it's silly and dramatic and not wise, it's bad practice, but it makes a decent video I suppose.
well actually his science is flawed if that was 220V he will be shocked even if he is wearing boots since it creates a capacitor between his body and ground and current will pass through same applies to 110V but it is weak you won't feel it. you wont get shocked even with 1000v if you touch the neutral to the can before the live wire electrity will flow thomrough the path of least resistance neglecting the body. in short if that 220V and he touched the live he will be shocked even with shoes some people are sensitive to 110V too
I work at a hardware store, and we call these things suicide cords. Folks always ask for them around Christmas time for their trees, but it’s usually because they’ve plugged in their lights wrong and they think they need a double-male cord when they really don’t (because nobody ever does).
"yo pass the -aux cord- speaker wire" "You better not play -trash- 60hz 120vac" *Plays 60hz 120vac -like a boss- This garbage attempt at a meme has been brought to you by me.
Fun fact: A double ended male plug extension cord like this is known colloquially among electricians as a "suicide lead". So... you know... you were very lucky.
@@MotoMendez No, it's most certainly in reference to Jamie from the Joe Rogan Experience podcast. "Pull that up, Jamie" is a common phrase heard on the show.
@@alexhuff3389 It takes .1 amps or 100 milliamps arcing across the heart to stop it. Greater voltage increases the risk, but it IS the amperage which affects the beating heart.
What's neat about the subwoofer is that the US grid runs at 60hz. Which happens to be be RIGHT where the subwoofer likes to function. And that's why it was playing a 60hz baseline. If that was hooked up to a box it would have made a rather powerful bass tone. For as long as it lasts
110V / 8ohms = 13.75 amps. 13.75 * 110 = 1512.5 watts. So a 1.5KW speaker in a proper enclosure would have been able to withstand it! That said I dunno that they make 1.5KW units. Nightclubs and concert venues can have a few KW worth of sound, but that's usually split between several smaller speakers, with several smaller amplifiers. You could wire up a few speaker drivers like that into one unit, in series - parallel connection. Then you'd have a multiple-speaker unit able to take the power. If you wanted 1.5KW of a continually droning 60Hz bassline. Why not, there's worse music in the charts.
the end of the video basically is: "man do you have any shaving cream?" - "No because i dont like the taste" "You eat shaving cream?" - "Why would I if I dont like the taste?"
We had one of those hot dog cookers in the 70s where you could cook lik6 hot dogs where the ends were stuck with probes. You slide the plastic cover overhead and turn it on. Slightly less hazardous than lawn darts. Keep up the great work. I miss Florida btw. 30 years. Half in st Lucie cry and half in the naples ft Myers area.
@@MrCh0o It's AC so the electrolysis changes direction so-many times a second, you wouldn't get many metal ions in your food. That said I'd hope the probes weren't stainless steel. Keeps clean but you wouldn't want even a few chromium ions in your food. Copper would be OK I suppose, it's a nutrient, you need to eat a bit of copper. The hot dogs were probably just as dangerous when they came out of the tin.
@@greenaum I don't know exactly how the electrodes would behave in that context, but I'd be much more worried about the electrolytes themselves. E.g. with regular table salt dissolved in water you'd be getting some nice tasty chlorine in your food, and I don't know much about the things they'd put in 70s hotdogs, but I'm sure there's plenty of nasty stuff that could get released. That's not even taking into account the stuff that might form from the organic matter decomposing and reacting with the electrolysis products. Wouldn't be surprised if you get some carcinogenic crap on a scale much larger than with frying
Gtgghy it wouldn’t kill you since the electricity will go from phase to neutral since it’s the lowest resistance, but it would almost definitely burn you and probably burn a hole in your leg
Kaleb Crawford oh yeah it would not have been a good time, but it should trip the breaker, and as long as the electricity doesn’t cross your heart, you probably won’t die
@@joshbenton810 yeah, he shouldn't die, but he wouldn't want to walk, stand, etc. for a few weeks. People assume electricity = death instantly, but most cases a standard outlet shock won't do more than burn a little, tingle for a bit etc. I've shocked myself a few times, never fun, but was never close to being dangerous either.
There are a lot of close call, he tell us he is isolated because he is standing up and just after that he plays with the hot dog/pickle with a knee on the ground

@@MotoMendez No, it's most certainly in reference to Jamie from the Joe Rogan Experience podcast. "Pull that up, Jamie" is a common phrase heard on the show.

Do you know where i can get one of those estention cords with 2 plugs on it? I dont want one i just want to know where to get it.
This is why us americans only get 120volts instead if 220.
@@bmo14lax current is dependent on voltage. To say it's the amperage that kills you is a misconception
@@alexhuff3389 i understand that.
Lmfao. You know your house should be getting fed 120/240 right?
@@alexhuff3389 It takes .1 amps or 100 milliamps arcing across the heart to stop it. Greater voltage increases the risk, but it IS the amperage which affects the beating heart.

If he doesn't get that he'll figure it out when he's older.
What's neat about the subwoofer is that the US grid runs at 60hz. Which happens to be be RIGHT where the subwoofer likes to function. And that's why it was playing a 60hz baseline. If that was hooked up to a box it would have made a rather powerful bass tone. For as long as it lasts
Love these little additions that explain the details.
110V / 8ohms = 13.75 amps. 13.75 * 110 = 1512.5 watts. So a 1.5KW speaker in a proper enclosure would have been able to withstand it! That said I dunno that they make 1.5KW units. Nightclubs and concert venues can have a few KW worth of sound, but that's usually split between several smaller speakers, with several smaller amplifiers.
You could wire up a few speaker drivers like that into one unit, in series - parallel connection. Then you'd have a multiple-speaker unit able to take the power. If you wanted 1.5KW of a continually droning 60Hz bassline. Why not, there's worse music in the charts.
a 50 hz cycle would have played a 50 hz bass tone too, though...
it would if the box was tuned to 60
This might work in US for 110v but certainly not in Europe :)

We had one of those hot dog cookers in the 70s where you could cook lik6 hot dogs where the ends were stuck with probes. You slide the plastic cover overhead and turn it on. Slightly less hazardous than lawn darts. Keep up the great work. I miss Florida btw. 30 years. Half in st
Lucie cry and half in the naples ft Myers area.
Nothing like having some electrolysis products in your food, amirite
@@MrCh0o It's AC so the electrolysis changes direction so-many times a second, you wouldn't get many metal ions in your food. That said I'd hope the probes weren't stainless steel. Keeps clean but you wouldn't want even a few chromium ions in your food. Copper would be OK I suppose, it's a nutrient, you need to eat a bit of copper. The hot dogs were probably just as dangerous when they came out of the tin.
@@greenaum I don't know exactly how the electrodes would behave in that context, but I'd be much more worried about the electrolytes themselves. E.g. with regular table salt dissolved in water you'd be getting some nice tasty chlorine in your food, and I don't know much about the things they'd put in 70s hotdogs, but I'm sure there's plenty of nasty stuff that could get released.
That's not even taking into account the stuff that might form from the organic matter decomposing and reacting with the electrolysis products. Wouldn't be surprised if you get some carcinogenic crap on a scale much larger than with frying
You guys gotta use eye protection. Shrapnel is not a joke

Same. I was like does this man want to die?
Gtgghy it wouldn’t kill you since the electricity will go from phase to neutral since it’s the lowest resistance, but it would almost definitely burn you and probably burn a hole in your leg
@@joshbenton810 he nearly burned his knee when he was getting up from the shaving cream, he almost keeled right on the plug.
Kaleb Crawford oh yeah it would not have been a good time, but it should trip the breaker, and as long as the electricity doesn’t cross your heart, you probably won’t die
@@joshbenton810 yeah, he shouldn't die, but he wouldn't want to walk, stand, etc. for a few weeks. People assume electricity = death instantly, but most cases a standard outlet shock won't do more than burn a little, tingle for a bit etc. I've shocked myself a few times, never fun, but was never close to being dangerous either.
