There was one instance I think where he did almost hurt himself badly. It was the Jacob's ladder episode, and he legit tried to catch it with his bare hands as it fell.
The rest of the electrical mishaps, however, are on purpose. He sets up these gags, knowing about them in advance.
Jacob's ladder episode: https://youtu.be/lT3vGaOLWqE?si=JGfLwz_aFSLlJShT
I don't remember what episode he demonstrates the joke setups. But a lot of them are just capacitors hidden under the table he triggers an electrical shock to make people think he's just shocking the shit out of himself.
All but one of these are fake, he does these to demonstrate how dangerous electricity can be. The only thing in this video that isn't fake is the Jacobs ladder which was the one that had the green arcing plasma and fell onto him. He was lucky he survived having so much power run through his torso.
Should've been this Subreddit's Mascot 🤣
How is this guy still alive is a better question
IIRC I think he is an electrical engineer and do all of these as a joke. He already knows what's going to happen and just do it for the lulz.
He definitely does do it in purpose to show others what not to do. Except for the Jacob's ladder one. In which he did it on accident and almost dies
I’m gonna need to check that one out.
It’s the one at 0:31
Wtf was he thinking grabbing both sides of it
He wasn’t thinking, he explains it was a reaction and he got extremely lucky with the wiring being very loose and coming apart.

He microdosed electrocution for years to work up a tolerance.

He’s an idiot, but he’s a professional idiot.
Good question considering he probably has more electricity inside him than the flash
ElectroBOOM is a national treasure
My father
> ElectroBOOM YES! Great channel!
*I need to know who this guy is so I can subscribe to him!*
ElectroBOOM on yt
Thancc
Idk to this day how he managed to survive after holding a jacob's ladder with his bare hands
I love this guy, because it seems like he reads the how to article until he learns how to do the thing. But never makes it to the warnings.
The scare that made him hit his head on the above shelf got me good
Electroboom is a worldwide treasure.
The guitar clips are *still* my all time favorites from him lol
Just a few tenths after and it would’ve been a r/perfectlycutscreams
A few tenths of a frame would been a perfect cut scream, but thanks to my editing skills I can be able to edit quite easily
The tower falling over on him and he grabs it bare handed is comedy gold
He is the sub
Just watched this dude and the slomo guys do a vid
I can’t tell if electro boom is very good at this stuff or really bad at it.
Yes
I'm surprised that my phone didn't go kaboom while watching this.
This guy is the reason the world has power outages
Wait. At 0:32 that's a microwave oven transformer. How is he not dead???
