aw that's sad. i assumed people knew better. This and Jacob's Ladders are the kind of thing where you set it up in one room, and you plug it in from the other room. That video of someone holding the HV end with their bare hands is nuts, I wouldn't even do that with line voltage. Same old story: people get acclimated to the danger, until one day they're working in the shop alone late at night and make a tiny mistake.
"we're talking 2000 volts here, we're not playing with tiny amounts of current"
