I've read through this thread, but I fail to see the point. I expected to see someone getting shocked on video, but I don't see that. I don't see him putting any metal objects inside the case or pouring water over it while it's turned on -- all things I would have expected by reading the title of this thread. But all that video shows is someone who opened a classic Mac and switched on the power. That's it. Nothing more. No sparks even!
Well, okay, the guy was an "idiot" for cracking the plastics open with a flat head screw driver, but perhaps he was a Windows user anyway who didn't care about Macs?
Now if he had opened the case, and then placed the Mac in a bathtub, and then filled it partially with water, and then plugged it in, and then switched on the power, now that would have been something to see. It wouldn't have taken long for the breaker to trip, but still, that would have been a more amazing video than this.
No, how about this... Open the Mac, put it in a large plastic pan so the Mac is half-way sitting in the pan, fill the pan with jello, refrigerate, then plug it in to see how well jello conducts electricity when you switch the Mac on. Of course, I would recommend an IBM PC for this test rather than a Mac, but you get the picture.
Seriously folks, I am struggling to see the point of this thread!
Such that this thread won't be a let-down for others who come across it, I've looked up some REAL flicks for you. If you want to see some video produced by a mind of idiocy and violence, have a look at these (I advise turning off your speakers unless you like vulgar music on the first video -- viewer discretion advised):
Weapons of Mac Destruction
Blowing up a Classic
And to think, the people who created these videos are likely registered voters in the US. Scary.
