In my latest video, I dive into some bizarre yet dangerous vintage life hacks from a book written over a 100 years ago. Can a potato really be used to test electrical polarity? Will solid wire work as a water pipe? And how safe is it to run a drill off a lightbulb filament?
I put these strange ideas to the test (so you don’t have to) to find out if they’re forgotten genius or if the book contributors just wanted to get their name published in print.
Hope you enjoy it
Cheers

As a disclaimer though- For your safety don’t mess with electricity! Despite the casual / comedic tone of this video, the electrical experiments shouldn’t be interpreted as instructions or replicated. Anything I show should strictly be interpreted as entertainment.
