I remember I used to put "slime" (it was literally slime that you could just buy at like Toys R Us) on one of these when I was younger and it would get really charged and shock the HELL out of you when you touched it. It was fun lol
if you tape a wire to it you can use the other end to tattoo your self. just got done with a small one on my hand. its not permanent but it does stay for a while. very sharp burning sensation tho so use caution
Was sent to the hospital after this. I have a very expensive powerful one and I put my necklace on it (idk why, I was high as hell) and came back in my room later, decided to pick it up and I can't remember after that. I have two scars on the fingers I went to pick it up with. Definitely seek caution people.
I did this in the local science center. Whenever someone came up near the plasma globe, I told them they were touching 1kV and explained to them high frequency and showed them the millimeter spark. they were like.... Do you live here?
@1223sebasbragta No, the burning is not from electrical current. Instead, it's because of heat being generated in a pin-pointed location. The glass barrier blocks any chance of being electrocuted- glass is not a conductor. And no, if you took off the glass you wouldn't get shocked, the gas inside of the ball would be released inhibiting the effect.
@JoshAndJoshMusic no the only reason it does this is because of the argon gas. if you take it out u release the argon. you will get only a mm spark when you put finger near it. If you want lightning flying all over your room, build a Tesla Coil.
@half4team man, you know a lot. Generally, these plasma balls will run at a MAXIMUM of 2 or 3 KV...NOT 100 KV...and it doesn't matter which hand you use, either.
@half4team /it will not stop your hart the worst you can get is a small bern on your finger. it has vary little amps and its only about 1 thousand volts. ive done it. i know all about it. its not dangerous
once i tried this by getting the coin and putting an ant uppon it with the clips. it cutted the ant in a half and i had the idea t do it with my finger but things haven't gone allrigt until the day i buyed a microwave
I remember when i was little about 5 or 6 i had one of these and my brother and i would put a penny on top of it and we would touch the penny and it would shock our fingers lol...
wow dude i like your style your not an ass and you dont like seeing ppl get hurt so you dont want ppl to do it but its still ok for you if ppl do it its just you want ppl to be safe thats smart and nice
i tride it it was fun the plasma ball was outside NOT at home but what happend is i bent both ends of the paper clip on the paper th HOLE THING MELTED
@falcovolt lol i laughed when you said not to try this when i got my very first one i was 6 and i used to do this exact thing and i used to take guitar strings and put it on the ball put a glove on a shock people with the guitar string and one day i was curious and i took apart almost the whole external parts of the plasma ball until there was just the stand and the metal part were the electricity came out and accidently shock myself it locked all muscles up then it stopped being funny
Hahaha risk? I put my plasma ball on high, put aluminum foil on it, then allowed it to arch to my finger. The tip was black and smelled burned... This was when I was about 12.
ok, y would u ask people not to do this when its pretty obvious that everyone is gonna try it, b/c it is pretty cool. its just kinda pointless to say that
Interesting to see and even more interesting to learn we can easily make that happen. Not in the sense that I'll try - though I probably would if I had a plasma ball - but in that it furthers my fear that the balls' effects may be harmful over time. Would like to know what you got on that, uploader. Thanks for sharing this.
i bought one of these at a yard sale and if you skip the buisness card and stuff you can burn your skin and you can see electricity between your finger and coin
Alright guys, now watch me throw this playing card, I have a degree in rocket science and astrophysics. That's about as relevant as you having a degree in electronics and doing this..
if you put your finger something about 1 or 2 millimeter away from the ball, the bolt goes into your finger without a coin or anything.. but it burns^^
@A7XGuyDrummer The paper caught on fire and eventually burnt my house down. Nah. But seriously, the paper just got a hole burnt through it. It should say "Don't try this if you're under the age of 10" or something.
i saw many tricks with plasma globes, i'm just curious, if its safer to use one that runs on batteries, instead of one running on 220. can anyone please tell me.
@DemolitionzNinja1316 Nothing. The inside of the globe is filled with Helium and Neon, neon being an inert gas that allows the electricity to flow though nano filaments all around the middle of the globe. If you were to remove the orb, the gas would escape and the filaments would break, and all you would have would be an expensive paper weight that might shock you when you touch it.
yeah i dont care, im totally trying this. also, how does one discover this? did you just randomly think.. "hmm i wonder whatr would happen if i took a quarter, piece of paper, and a paper clip and put them on top of a plasma ball!!!!"
@TheDysfunkpunk Your skin is a bad conductor for current, plus its static build up, but the coin is metal and is very good conduction for current. The paper clip completes the circuit. and burns through the paper card.
