I didn't know that was possible...but I'm not going to test it out. ;-)

i'm totally going to try that out.

interesting because I was thinking about posting somes tesla coil videos earlier, but was busy.

If you explode, please don't be angry with me. ;-)

was he just holding the bulb up in the air or was he touching the line. He wasn't touching the line was he.

No, swampgirl...he was just holding it. But there is that scary point where he raises it up toward the line and I'm thinking, "This is going to get bloody..." ;-)

Love your old hound dog!

Thanks daphne, it's my dog Sam. He's the best!

That's yours?? He's adorable!!!!!

Thanks! too bad the pic is so small you can't see the line of drool hanging from his mouth.

Don't worry, Shaved Head Dude. Millions of tax dollars were wasted during the Clinton Era to prove the obvious: power lines do nothing more than deliver electricity.

Hey there, I'm the author of the video on YouTube. I read John W. Farley, Ph.D's "debunking" article, but I am not convinced. If the earth's electromagnetic field was so much stronger than those from power lines, then how come every flourescent light on the planet does not automatically light up like mind did under the power lines? This is where his science fails.. He does not consider the concentration of the field per cubic area of space at the point of exposure. Sure the earth's field could be hundreds of thousands or millions of times stronger as a whole than any one power line, BUT, that field is spread out over a volume of space so large, that it makes the concentration of the field delivered to the space inhabited at any moment by an individual's body about nill. Whereas when an individual is in close proximity to a power line, it is a potently concentrated field radiating directly from the lines, not some distant core thosands of miles deep. Therefore, the exposure at that moment to an individual is severely more potent than exposure to any planetary radiation field. It's about concentration delivered at exposure, NOT overal strength of the field where the distance from the central point of radiation of any said fields are not equal.. they can't be compared on terms of overall field strength in any meaningful manner in this context of exposure. Here's some science for John W. Farley, Ph.D... Inverse square law.. It states that exposure to any radiation is exponentially weaker (the inverted square) as you double distance from the source. Therefore since the earth's field is fairly well distributed to meaninglessness in the context of individual exposure, it can't be realistically even considered as a standard to judge a concentrated exposure of a nearby high voltage power line. I stand by my experiment as a more meaningful judgement of which field is stronger!

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Well put Xapplimatic - and great video. Oh ... and move house.

Living next to that much electricity must make you extremely smart. Great info, xap.
