MythBusters - The Dirtiest Trick In Mythbusters History

they plan to connect the batteries to the angels and shock an unsuspecting victim but it takes 100 volts to produce a noticeable zap and the ancient batteries don't have enough juice so basically those Baghdad batteries aren't going to give us the voltage that we need to shock Adam so what I am going to do is I'm gonna hook up the red snapper it's the cattle prodding the cattle electrified fence device we use this little you know earlier I'm gonna hook this up to the Angels and hopefully this will give us a shock that we need they use this gadget before - tensley peeing on the third rail myth there we go I gotta say hi it was nothing it was nothing it seems harmless enough then okay let me try we want a really decent shop we want Adams hair to stand up on it but his hair is so short oh we can't do that to Adam in his pee experiment Adam must have avoided the fool joke it's high voltage but low amps so it's not fatal but it hurts a scale of 1 to 10 what was the electrocution pain on that one I would say 211 seriously it hurt that bad there is no way we're doing this Adam that was unbelievable the ancient batteries are too weak to invoke a religious experience but in good conscience can they use the painful fence shocker on an unsuspecting Adam I'm gonna leave it up to you I say we leave it at this decision is entirely in Carrie's hands but first the final ancient battery test 2,000 years ago in a society where electricity was apparently unknown could an electric shock have inspired religious or battle dürer the junior team made a replica Ark and wired it to deliver a shock Adam knows that much oh my god oh I'd like that is magnificent what he doesn't know is they might have replaced the ancient batteries with an electrical fence transformer which would be the dirtiest trick in myth-busting history what do I do you approach with disbelief hold your hands up to the idols very deeply into God's eyes and grab on now you guys haven't hooked in the electric-fence thing in here have to all right our team I'm reasonably reasonably convinced you have it is it ready to go what go ahead that described anywhere okay I don't know I mean like do you feel God you did hook up the real thing yeah messing about with electricity is dangerous to say the least and that shock hurt are you all right yeah good oh you expected did you get that kick in the chest uh yeah and the head and the entire body that was ten thousand volts through my heart the junior Mythbusters have shown the ancient batteries can electroplate and potentially be used for pain relief but instilling the fear of God hunting certain Adam had the shock of his life and now the junior team ought to be fearing Adam did that feel like God to you I don't think so if you were able to get any kind of tingle out of touching this thing that it would have had very very powerful ramifications everything that we can't explain is God a Mason to me it sounds like everything you've everything you guys have tested it's plausible plausible plausible so there may be a spark of truth to the myth of ancient batteries well you know it's my lack of great to it okay this is not funny actually when Jamie tried to electrocute me that's that's a that's a real glimpse into Jamie's character I mean when he gets really angry you he's kind of reduced to sort of the mentality of an angry twelve-year-old it's not safe to do that to somebody else I mean it's all fun and games but you know if you're gonna be about it that's not funny another cattle prod prank went spectacularly wrong in the myth of ancient electricity you guys haven't hooked in the electric-fence thing in here have you not even a good idea I'm reasonably convinced you haven't the junior team didn't let on that the arc was wired up they described anywhere yeah I don't know I mean like this oh you feel God you did hook up the real thing I can't tell you how bad that went um I've never felt so bad in my life I mean you know he's a good friend of mine and I basically betrayed him by allowing him to touch the cattle prodder I'll be back in a few minutes and it was not funny I mean in hindsight we can all laugh at it but that day he was pretty upset no just leave me alone
