A scientist in a laboratory runs an experiment where he shoots electricity from his fingertips. The scientist turns on a large machine, which whirrs as the lights turn off. Lightning shoots out of a large metal orb in the foreground, up to the ceiling. The scientist explains that 1 million volts shot out, and notes normally the power would be fatal. He explains by changing the frequency from 60 cycles to 65,000 cycles, they have made it safer. The metal dome is removed, as the scientist takes off his jacket and shoes, and places pointed metal caps on his fingers. The lights turn off, as the scientist shoots blue electricity bolts out of his fingers to the ceiling. He picks up a plank of wood with a tin foil handle and runs the experiment again, with a jagged bolt of electricity shooting through the wood, scarring it and setting it on fire. He blows out the flames as he steps down from the exdperiment, and walks to his coat. Huntley Film Archives is a film library holding tens of thousands of films.
