A strange energy outburst experiment related to the "kick"

a speck of dust or a speck of "something" in the gap maybe?

Hmm, there is ALOT of energy required to do this! (turn something into glass I mean).

Thinking of tesla who said something about the shock he could feel
From a spark gap pulse over 100 milli-seconds I think it was, that would penetrate any shielding. which sounds like maybe ?electron impact ionization??

No, electrons cannot travel through the shields tesla was talking about, it was not electrons that caused the stinging sensation he felt.

That's an amazing experiment and well worth duplicating. I hope you can duplicate it one day.

There's a lot to say about solid magnetic cores such as iron nails, but I won't bother you. For now lets just say there are a lot of power exchanges occurring in them and one of the methods of accessing this is through Eddy currents.

Looking at the setup I see it is possible if timing and everything is just right to get resonance. You have a huge cap and magnetic cores. We know at resonance the voltages can reach levels thousands times higher than the source. Perhaps that's why the cores did not move because the current was oscillating. And perhaps such high intense resonance voltages are what caused such a bright spark gap.

Cool experiment and well worth duplicating.
