DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME 

Then why post the video - how many people do you think is ok to die for views?

@@shaungambrill8972 and also comment after 10 MONTHS

People are dying dude, remove the fucking video

People searching for this aren’t going to follow a warning in the description. If this video stays up I hope your channel is taken down.

Then take this video down, you hypocrite! You're collecting ad revenue of something that killed more than 50 people in the US and UK alreadt. Who knows how many more have lost their lives BECAUSE OF YOU!

Lmao same

Do it! Do it!

I’m here because I’m watching a video by Ann on how RU-vid removed HER video explaining how deadly this is. Yet in their wisdom RU-vid is leaving the how to videos up. Guess RU-vid wants to see more ppl die.

RU-vid has since removed her video saying it was dangerous content, when she was warning of how deadly the practice is. But this video remains! 😡

Me too

I think it is because the video was made before, and they can only edit the description but either way its not enought

I agree this is extremely irresponsible. If someone accidentally touched the board or contact they would be killed by 2000 volts. 200 is enough to kill most people This video should be removed

@@beelzemobabbity yeah that’s why they should take it down. But I guess the views are more important to them for now

I can agree somewhat. But the difference between this and any other dangerous diy task? Like replacing a car battery. The average person that might want to perform wood fracting, probably won't even have the correct tool to try something like this.

@@liamkearns7278 the biggest difference with this and most other diy's that are dangerous is that if you fuck this up in anyway you will die. 2000+ volts and 1+ amps will kill you outright

🙋🏽‍♂️

Me and it’s not even that nice.

I was curious after hearing about their deaths

👋

Yes. And these videos don’t belong on RU-vid. Most don’t have the warning here in the description and there should be a warning in the video itself. People watch and think it’s safe or not very harmful. Everyone should report these videos as the dangerous and harmful acts that RU-vid supposedly is against.

Quit whining and quit telling others what to do. Some people actually follow property safety precautions and aren't reckless. The guy has a long stick wrapped in electrical tape and electrical gloves on . If you can't take care of yourself get off the internet

This must be the most stupid hack that exists, I have read that many people have actually died. Even if you plan for safety an accident could easily happen, like your hand slip and you would die immidiatly (unless you get CPR immidiatly). So specially stupid to do all alone, not sure either if it's a good and moral thing to show this on youtube even if everyone is responsible for themselves but many just don't use their brain or research .

@@--..__ It only takes one elapse in concentration to end up dead, redundancy is safety. Sure electrical tape but they were not wearing electrical resistant gloves, (they are just basic leather work gloves) considering the danger these gloves should also be up to their elbows. They are also not standing on a electrical safety mat, nor do they have an electrical resistant apron on. Again considering the dangers of fractal wood burning, they themselves are not taking enough precautions. I agree that some people actually follow property safety precautions and aren't reckless but unfortunately this video is one of the reckless ones.

@@--..__ even if you wear insulated gloves YouCan still get extreme injuries for life. In one a proffesional electrician did this with insulated gloves and he could see the smoke literally coming off from the gloves that were practically welded to his hands. This isn't safe even for proffesionals.

@@mafurock33 weirdly they took down a very popular video about why it's dangerous :o a lady was explaining the dangers and begging people never to try it (she wasn't doing it herself, just telling people not to) and they took it down for "harmful and dangerous content" :o but videos showing how to do it have been up for months or even years. Heaps of people reached out to youtube and they reinstated her video but I don't think anyone flagged her video as it was a safety video. Sometimes RU-vid just does whatever it wants sadly!

If ur gonna do it 🙏🙏please do ur research on how to do it safely

Stf u

This is true of a microwave transformer that puts out 500mA. Many of us use a neon light transformer that only puts out 30mA. For reference, it is about 100mA that will kill the average adult. Reardon has turned this into a boogeyman while also making it main stream. More people who have never heard of this will now try it. If these videos start getting censored there are only going to be more people using dangerous methods instead of learning the safe and proper ways to do this.

when can you touch it how long does it take too discharge?

not if its grounded

its only dangerous if you dont know what oyur doing

Experience or not its still incredibly dangerous, one slip and unless you are seriously fortunate you will die and even if you survive you are injuried for life. Watch ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wzosDKcXQ0I.html or if the link isn't working (as it isn't for some) search how to cook that, her debunking videos are great and the more views her video gets the better. Get informed, save a life.

To an extent therein lies the problem, the getting hit for just a second - due to electric shock you are unable to let go so that second would most likely be full time until someone can SAFELY isolate you, by which time you will already long be toasted. If you are "lucky" enough to get hit for just a second (e.g. the shock was to luckily knock you to an isolated location) then you may well survive but that's unlikely as you typically loose full control of your body and freeze as you are electrocuted. Your brain and feelings still work though so you go through the horrid pain (both physical and emotional) right until the very end.

Good morning, thank you very much for the warning, I will follow your advice

I took the transformer from a microwave but didn't go any further with it , though of "3000" volts inches away said no thanks you , need only one slip to get your wing's, so anyone thinking of doing it think again the 37 that died thought exactly the same, "I'll be carefully "

Good morning, thank you very much for the warning, I will follow your advice

Those people don't have a healthy respect for electricity and don't know how to be safe

@@rileyvonbevern4652 so how would you be safe around 2000 volts?

Yeah, especially the brigading telling uploaders that they are personally responsible for death. Real classy.

She's also often going after content farms who make those compliation videos full of stupid stuff, but this craft was the exception.

Yes, high voltage high current. It will kill you if you touch it.

34 people have killed themselves in the US alone so far.

And the final product def. not worth it!

@@CrystalGreenNYC pyrography is where its at when it come to wood burning theres a reason pyrography has professional tools for it and not wood fracking

@@l3ete1geuse that is next to nothing.

yes literally

It's not for nothing you need a specialized education to be allowed to work with high voltage, don't play with your microwave transformer.

Is it really that pretty? I can hardly see the appeal of it. It might be, if the burns were even and spread out nicely from one end to the other. But most of the time, they're not. Some clumps up in one place, a few burns are much more severe than others and char big ridges into the wood, which don't look all that nice even after all the cleaning and touching up.

Get over it, looks fantastic & I will try it. My life & my choice to do with it what I want.

@@LilYet i mean... no. just no. there's no "safe" way of doing fractal wood burning. there's no case where you being "fine" is guaranteed or even more likely than you dying.

They probably only added it to the description after the deaths started being reported on

YES, not only did he ONLY add the warning hidden within the description AFTER a bunch of people have died, but he’s purposely not taking the video down or editing the video to add an ACTUAL warning where people will ACTUALLY see it, bc this guy cares far more about getting money from all the views. Sadly, even adding these comments is helping him get more money, bc “interaction” is the only thing the youtube algorithm cares about. Hitting “dislike” still helps the video get more hits/views. Reporting it is the only way to eventually get dangerous content removed.

Because he's arrogant.

First, I agree with you. I would never do this the way it's shown in a YT vid. However, you could set up a perfectly safe way to do it by using a dead man's switch located in an adjacent room. Both rooms would be built to allow no possibility for current to pass between them. Closing the circuit could take place using a bluetooth signal with a relay, or something similar, to allow complete isolation. A monitoring system could provide for verification of complete discharge of all electrical energy before it was physically possible for the operator to approach the wood. You could actually automate the process, using some simple robotics, and make it not only safe, but at $200 a piece, you could make a pile of money at it. But I agree, not a great thing to set up in the corner of the garage for a little Sunday morning tinkering.

Someone just died check cnbc

Avoid death by not doing it

Unfortunately it’s very dangerous no matter what method you use. I don’t know what happened to those people how they were doing their burns but I have found the method I use to work great. With that being said I don’t recommend anyone trying this.

Do it outside in a controlled environment with proper safety gear and advice and supervision from an experienced professional

BruceBurns Woodshop one woman was carrying her rig outside , tripped on her baggy clothing and accidentally turned it on while holding the dangerous bits. She didn’t die but permanently burned disfigured her hand, lost a few fingers. I hear tell that it’s a 70% chance of death from touching the shocky bits, so she’s a lucky lass.

Pencil marks to make sure whole surface is sanded, weight to avoid cupping because wetting the wood and then the burning process dries it so the moisture content is uneven so will warp otherwise, the weight and time help counteract the warping/cupping.
