I don't understand why everyone thinks this sort of thing is so dangerous. It's electricity, it's predictable, and when you know how to work with it (which this guy obviously does) you can do "crazy" things like this with relative safety.
It's a carny trick, like walking on hot coals / broken glass or laying on a bed of nails. As long as you know what's going on, driving a car is more dangerous.
Don't get me wrong, this is undeniably cool. But the guy doesn't have a death wish, he just knows his sh*t and figured it would be a neat thing to do.
@DeadWriter: Hey, this guy is an agent of the aliens and abductors! Foil does not work. Especially a beanie! For proper thought control prevention and to also stop the abductions, aluminum foil doesn't work. That's why the aliens LET you construct a foil helmet. They really fear stuff that works. Like this:
But be warned. According to the creator,on the directions page, you need to create these quickly, as when the aliens, or DeadWriter find out you are constructing one, they will try to stop you. You also need to add velcro or a string to your hat so that the aliens can not remove it. During the day, when you are safe, you need to keep this in a cabinet with a handle or latch, so the aliens can not steal it! Please people, DO NOT LISTEN TO THE OBVIOUS ALIEN DEAR WRITER!!! ;P
The word "invented" and/or "invention" is thrown around a little to often these days.
There's a point where putting things on top of other things and connecting them is inventive.
There's a lot of room below that point, where this "automobile" nests. Nests in a furrow of crap under a crap-lit sky with a crap smell in the air and a dissatisfied "inventor" snoring lazily to sleep, dreams of crap-covered-crap playing before his lidded eyes...
