Electro-Static Toothpicks
3m 6s
This trick is rather shocking. Unlike most metals, wood is not a very desirable material when it comes to conducting electricity. That's because it's an insulator, a material typically meant to protect from the flow of electricity within a conductor. At least that's what our science teachers have always taught us.
Anderson has a trick that will make you question everything your science teachers have ever taught you about electricity. After this tutorial you'll be able to convince others that maybe wood isn't such a bad conductor after all.
