Faraday Cage Protects from 100,000 V :: Physikshow Uni Bonn

0:02 Did she just say "fa sheezy"?! Keak Da Sneak would be proud! :-)

That's an amazingly educational class, if you think about it

Now you can surf the internet after a nuclear bomb goes off because your computer won't be fried if you put it in a Faraday cage. Of course you have to take care that you're not fried.

the electricity always will find the shortest way in the most conductive material, so, i think it cant hit a person cuz we are not "that" good conducting electricity.

also, the faraday box is used when some organizations steal expensive cars. they put them in a faraday cage to prevent gps localization or that kind of stuff until they find the device and deactivate it or destroy it

It's totally safe inside..

A Faraday cage or Faraday shield is an enclosure formed by conducting material, or by a mesh of such material. Such an enclosure blocks out external static electrical fields. Faraday cages are named after physicist Michael Faraday, who built one in 1836.[1]

well if the voltage is more than the material it's made of can handle then i guess so, otherwise electricity will take the path of least resistance to the ground and metal is a much better conductor than air or human.
