The text is a transcript of a video where the host, Mark Vins, is about to experience an electric shock from an electric eel. The host is nervous and excited about the upcoming experiment. He explains that the electric eel is capable of producing an electric shock up to 860 volts, which is eight times the voltage in a household outlet.
The host then proceeds to stick his hand in a tank of water, where an electric eel is located. He experiences a shock from the eel, which he describes as "crazy". The host then explains that the electric eel is an educational ambassador for its species and was not harmed by the shock.
The host also explains that the electric eel's ability to produce such a high voltage is due to its electric organs, which contain thousands of cells called electrocytes. These cells act like a series of batteries, moving electrons across their surface to produce shocks on demand.
The host then proceeds to explain that the size of the eel and the amount of energy it can produce is directly related to the size of the shock it can deliver. He demonstrates this by sticking his hand in a tank of water with a smaller electric eel, and then with a larger one. The larger eel delivers a much larger shock.
The host then explains that the electric eel uses its electric organs to communicate and navigate in its environment. The eel's main and hunter organs produce high voltage shocks, which are used to stun its prey so it can be swallowed alive.
The host then proceeds to experience a larger shock from the electric eel, which he describes as "horrifying". He explains that the shock was so intense that it felt like the Tesla coil used to visualize the shock had exploded.
Finally, the host thanks the viewers for watching the video and invites them to subscribe to his channel for more experiments.
Here are some possible facts extracted from the text:
1. The electric eel is capable of producing an electric shock up to 860 volts.
2. The electric eel is not an eel, but a species of knife fish that are more closely related to carp and catfish.
3. The electric eel has three electric organs: the sax organ, the main organ and the hunters organ.
4. The sax organ pulses with a lower voltage shock for electro communication and navigation.
5. The main and hunters organs produce high voltage shocks for stunning prey or defending against predators.
6. The first battery was invented by Volta, who was inspired by the electric eel's electrocytes.
7. A Van de Graaff generator is a device that builds up charge on a metal sphere and discharges it as a spark when touched.
8. A Tesla coil is a device that produces high voltage, high frequency alternating current electricity and can create sparks or arcs of electricity in the air.
9. A TENS unit is a device that delivers low voltage pulses of electricity through electrodes attached to the skin for pain relief or muscle stimulation.
