The video is a humorous exploration of the concept of defibrillation, a process used to restart a heart. The host, who admits to being a bad cook, decides to use a defibrillator to tenderize a steak, inspired by Benjamin Franklin's anecdote of using electricity to tenderize turkeys.
The host explains how a defibrillator works, stating that it uses a large capacitor to store energy, which is then discharged through an inductor to slow down the pulse. The host demonstrates this process by charging a light bulb and a lithium battery, and then attempting to open a can of soda with the defibrillator.
The host also attempts to shock the ground to coax worms up to the surface, but this experiment is cut short when the worms start to emerge from the ground. The host then proceeds to defibrillate a steak, but the steak does not jump as expected.
Finally, the host defibrillates a fresh fish from a local market, but the fish does not contract like the steak did. The host concludes by stating that while there is a difference in taste between the defibrillated fish and the regular fish, he does not recommend anyone else trying this at home due to the potential risks.
buying their own\n00:12:24.32: defibrillators to try this for\n00:12:25.76: themselves because that's just probably\n00:12:27.76: not safe\n00:12:28.96: i mean it's a big risk of electrocution\n00:12:30.72: and you could easily damage the\n00:12:32.40: equipment you could also damage the meat\n00:12:34.32: you could also damage the meat and you\n00:12:36.00: could also damage yourself if you're not\n00:12:37.84: careful so i wouldn't recommend it unless\n00:12:39.68: you're very careful and you know what\n00:12:41.36: you're doing so for the sake of\n00:12:43.04: education i thought it would be cool to\n00:12:44.96: see if it would work and it does work\n00:12:46.96: it's just not recommended to try this at\n00:12:48.64: home okay so that's it for today's\n00:12:50.40: episode of i can't believe you can buy\n00:12:52.00: that on ebay i'm steven bradbury backyard\n00:12:54.56: scientist and that's a wrap", metadata={})]
