Fried Plumbers and Crazyness

Those sparks are 12ft long! More like lightning, really, but either way those things could make an unlucky plumber very crispy. The tesla coils are seven feet tall which really puts the massiveness of this construction in to perspective. There are no speakers in this setup, and the sound is coming just from the electricity ripping through the air. Just like how thunder is the result of lightning, but on a much smaller scale. Pretty amazing if you ask me.  I am always awed at phenomena of sound from electronics, especially when it come to transistors and how when designing a computer the noise that the transistors make is taken into consideration. The conversion of electrical energy to mechanical sound energy is just fascinating.
On a crazy note, I can't wait until we can control the weather and are able to make every thunderstorm sound like a symphony orchestra of the gods. Or a hip-hop beat.
