Wonderful rendition James! I did the exact same thing when it comes to shocking myself. While attaching the wire, you think “well, no power is flowing I guess,” until you touch the bare end of the wire and it feels like you’re about to die lol.
Remember Jay. Stay classy :-)
Hi Jay
Yes, I was surprised because the Franklin bell wasn't working well but it sure seemed to shock me easily!
Hey you should recreate teslas patient for radiant energy harvesting it's a insulated conductive plate here's the patent number not sure what it is but I'm certain it works off this same principle it patient number is US685957A
@@TheActionLab When are one of you two, or maybe someone else, going to invert and transform down to a lower voltage higher current? Funny, though seeing the range of HV antenna balloons, kites and now drone designs. Would be interesting to see this converted ideally (not certain offhand how) though inverting and then transforming or something like that comes to mind. Seems I commented on the Plasma Channel noting a circuit like Great Scott demonstrated that might be the solid state least complicated way with less losses. Guess have to see what the most efficient DC to DC high voltage conversion is if not a DC to AC inverting then stepping down if not stepped down in the process.
Imagine if the Eiffel Tower was sitting on insulators. I’m pretty sure you could tap a fair amount of current from that structure =]
Suddenly - lighting strikes!

My man's really taken the world's electricity problem personally
We used to be able to draw a 1/4 inch spark for the lead from our old TV roof antenna. Thing was, we lived about a mile from the WPEN radio transmitter tower. 50K watts or so can do weird stuff.
Our power company was stringing a new line and posts, had about 7km finished. A local lineman was helping up on the new metal pole when bare skin on his calf grounded on the pole. He was knocked unconscious still belted to the pole. He survived with only a huge burn on his leg. The wire was not yet connected to the grid. The official story from the power company claimed it was lighting. It was of course, not lighting. They just neglected to ground the 7 km long wire and it collected voltage from the air. This was not in the U.S. by the way, so no OSHA, or training apparently.
I went outside to look for my cat in a thunderstorm yesterday and lightning hit a tree no more than 40-50 yards away, so close and powerful that I felt the shockwave hit me in the chest - not electricity, just sheer energy, like a sonic boom. It made me instinctively lean and jump back. Really was a pretty cool experience, considering the fact that I'm okay.
Yeah, I've been about that close to a lightning strike. Funny thing about it is I didn't even react. I don't think it's because I have ice water in my veins, it just happened so quick and in the moment I knew if I was hearing it, I was okay. Very odd.
My brother almost got hit by one last year. Literally just behind his back, maybe a 1 person gap. He and his grandma cried (they were on our villa)
was your cat in the tree
is your cat okay??
A bolt of lightening heats the air it moves through up to 50,000 F. This causes that air to rapidly expand outwards which causes an air pressure shock wave. It sounds like a fast "crack" up close but as the shock wave expands out the shock wave stretches out to the thunder "boom" we expect. Being that close, you experienced the initial "crack" pressure wave - and yes; it would feel like a ton of bricks hitting you in the chest.
As an electrical engineer, I'm shocked (puntended) that 1:58 worked as well as it did with the paint/coating. In fact, one way to improve your drone experiment would be to sand the cans.
Lots of paint is metallic so it probably helped reduce the interference some.
@@metamorphicorder Soda cans dont have "paint" per se, I think its a PVC coating
I would like to see a repeat of this experiment but by trying to charge a rechargeable battery. I find this all fascinating and someone needs to explore this ... the power companies of the world will really hate this I am sure if it bore fruit.
@@unnamed47 If one is lucky enough to get land by a river or stream one can have their own water turbine power system at a fraction of the cost. Plus it is just as reliable as the river/stream is consistently flowing. They really need to improve battery tech. They are working on it but it has a ways to go. Really need a system that can be renewed instead of replacing the battery which are very expensive.
I’m convinced at that this man is a future time traveler who set up this channel to slowly feed us information from the year 5000
This is tech that was surpressed in the 1920s

I think the “shock” he felt is the static charge from the rotating blades… it’s the reason helicopters need a ground cable dropped in the ocean before hoisting the rescued out…
Does that apply to airplanes too? If they are flying at 30k feet it must be picking up a lot of charge.
Lol
Do it during a lightning storm. That will increase the current by a lot
Lol
I think Frankenstein did that..😊
03:45 The diagram on the bottom right is really interesting.
They used a hairpin circuit to create high voltage impulses from the high voltage DC potential.
Then these pulses are fed into a transformer to transform it down to a usable voltage.
As far as I know, the amperage should increase by transforming high voltage to a lower voltage.
The high voltage potential between the antenna and ground holds a huge energy potential but has very little energy flow (current).
You would need a device at the bottom that can transform the high voltage potential down to a usable and by doing that it should induce a higher flow (more current) of said potential.
Please correct me if I am wrong, but wouldn't the watts of energy transmitted (P=V*A) would remain the same (or less due to loss in the transformer)?
@@RCuriousPilot If there was something transmitted yes, but this concept shown is about collecting atmospheric static electricity.
I do believe that there is free energy that can be harvested in the atmosphere. You can really harness it...
Thank you so much! I really love your channel and I wish you the best success!
Nicely done TAL - well explained too. Thanks for this; thank you very much ...
I really loved this video. Never knew such thing could happen. Thanks for always making amazing content for the subscribers.Hope you will keep bringing more awesome content like this👍🏻.
The law of conservation of energy is fascinating. It’ll always find ways to prove itself right no matter how far (up or down) we look for breaking it!
Mind=blown
There must be some way to get energy like this
It would Revolutionize electricity
Tesla did that but his inventions were taken by the FBI
Thank you mate! I saw Rimstar running an eletrostatic corona motor the same way, but it wasn't clear why we couldn't use it better. You helped me understand it. Cheers!
You can also get free energy (your meter will turn backwards) by setting the output of a variac one turn less than a 1:1 ratio. You connect the AC input to the mains normally, then you connect the secondary to an extension lead which you plug into the neighbour's outdoor socket.
💀
that isn't free energy, that's stealing it from your neighbor lol
Would be interesting to know if the balloons would work - and how much power you could harness from one.
And how many/how big of a balloons you would need to get the same energy as you can get with a solar panel or wind turbine...
He is actually a mad scientist 😂😀
Unfunny😐
@@plasmak3297 for YOU. LOL!
String an unshielded cable between 2 mountains insulating 1 end hang a massive metal screen from it as a collector then run it through a transformer with capacitors & resistors
You have the best experiments.👍👍
With a couple blank copper clad panels (PCB blanks) and the right sort of filters you can actually get power - I once used a little breakout board for a LTC3588 that I got from one of the maker websites (several offer it) for about 30 USD and I soldered 4 blank panels into two larger copper panels (just ran a bead down between them), hooked them up to the breakout board (it came populated), held up the boards towards the fluorescent lights in the lab (at work), and it started pulling 100mA at 3.3V no problem from a distance of about a foot from the ballast (that's what makes the noise/heat, noise=audible energy spray, heat=tactile/IR visible energy leak - inefficiencies=leaky/spray you can harvest).
Just a question, does this work if you connect the copper wire to a helium baloon?
Yes, the baloon may not be able to hold that much weight, so what if we increase the number of baloons...
I'm sure it would, the drone is just the lift.
Better yet just use a weather balloon, get it up to about 90,000 feet.
balloons cant hold the helium for a long time
We shouldnt waste helium on this sort of thing - helium escapes from the atmosphere and is a very limited resource - use hydrogen!
Yes.
I wonder if you could do something like that on a massive scale with an object orbiting earth or something
Yes you could but space debris is the issue.
@@Anthrofuturism and resistance.
@@fretfulfirefighter7130 Electrodynamic tethers (EDTs) are long conducting wires, such as one deployed from a tether satellite, which can operate on electromagnetic principles as generators, by converting their kinetic energy to electrical energy...
or as motors, converting electrical energy to kinetic energy. Electric potential is generated across a conductive tether by its motion through a planet's magnetic field.
As part of a tether propulsion system, crafts can use long, strong conductors to change the orbits of spacecraft. When direct current is applied to the tether, it exerts a Lorentz force against the magnetic field, and the tether exerts a force on the vehicle. It can be used either to accelerate or brake an orbiting spacecraft.
Space elevator problems
I don’t think that it is possible for two major reasons.
1. Most satellites can’t hover over a point on earth. They would have to be in geostationary orbit which is really far away.
2. The long wire passing through earth’s magnetic field would act as a brake and slow down the satellite until it falls back to earth. Deploying a long copper wire was actually suggested as a way to safely deorbit old satellites.
i'm a ham radio op out in the Arizona desert. When the monsoon thunderstorms are moving through the area, the charge in the air goes way up. We disconnect our antennas of course, but if you place the feed line for the antenna next to a ground rod, we can draw half inch sparks off it from the charge. Yes, I've been shocked while unhooking it too.
Another thing. We can use kites and balloons to take an antenna wire way up. It's standard practice to install a 1 mega ohm resistor between the antenna lead and ground to bleed off the charge and save the radio from dealing with it.
I believe the key point here is to purchase property where you have land and mineral rights for mining to include the sky above in your real estate purchase whereby you would be owning the land below and the sky above in your acreage.

This is one of my favorite episode! Very interesting!
Love yah dude, you rock!
Idk why in my head says : there's no free energy -electroboom
They are FAF
we have free energy upto 300 units😅😂
Epic
Because there's not. Even if you would discover source of infinite energy, you have to make initial investment to harness it, and later pay some maintenance costs. EDIT: or you can just steal energy lol. I think that's counts but only if you will never get caught.

This was the best one among all your experiments
Jay is awesome! Love Plasma channel!! I've been saying you guys should so a collab for a couple years now. Jay has responded positively to my comments, but despite being an early subscriber to Action Lab, I've never recieved a single response......but if i had, I'd want it to be about working with Jay on a project. Talk about irony.......the drone gave a low battery alarm as it was helping produce electricity from the air around it....🤣
Wish we could harness it. Always think of your family when I see you. Your mom is so cute.
Brilliant!
I think the plasma channel has a nice demonstration of this also
I think that one day there will be a breakthrough that will allow us to extract free energy from the air. We just need to unlock a few key pieces of knowledge about how it all works. Then, we can innovate enough to get free electricity. But then, I'm an optimist at heart!
Title: FREE ENERGY💡⚡
Electroboom: So, you have choosen rectification !
Where does Kirchhoff's law of current loops come into play? Like in a tornado, where the outer wall of the tornado is moving upwardly, and the filament of the tornado is moving downwardly. Would the flow of electrons be inside of the tornado, and on the outside of the tornado, coming from that potential difference that is from the charge that is on the water vapor? Cool stuff, thank very much for this video!
The charge stored in the atmosphere is effectively in a capacitor
So your circuit is the capacitor from ground to the sky, then a large resistor (small surface area screen), then the long copper wire back to ground
This video:(exist)
ElectroBOOM: (angry science noises)
Awesome experiment!
Well done for honest science that informs, love it.
Amazing!
Someone may have already asked this, but going back to the skyscraper idea. Couldn't you use an insulator like what the power company uses to prevent the power line from touching the power pole? Like at the top of the skyscraper you have a solid and strong support structure sticking out, with one of those power company style insulators at the other end (like the end not attached to the building), and then on the other side of the insulator, you have your (hopefully thicker to carry more current?) Wire, which from there "hangs" down to where you had the Franklin Bell setup (and I'm guessing you could hook up a light bulb or better still something to smooth out and regulate the flowing electricity and charge a battery with it?)
You'd get severe electrical shocks every time you enter or leave the building
Love this kind of stuff. It's probably possible to use this kind of things to power small devices, just a tower and a transformer being driven by a crystal oscillator or something. Always wanted to try it, have to pull my finger out and try.
Happy Super Month. 👩🏿🦰
Make a large plate and spray it with graphite plate. Then use a circuit board with bridge rectifiers with the AC in series and the positive and negatives in parallel. Using a coil and capacitor maybe you can get it to resonate or a coil and a 150w piezo element and try to get something from a raised plate. Or using a small avalanche diode or spark tube for pulsing a discharge. Or an on off switching circuit to the ground connection may be ideal.
I heard a story of a guy who lived near some power lines who did this. Because power lines have no insulation, he was able to extract a considerable amount of ambient power from the power line without ever touching the power line.
It's called inductance. They now have monitoring systems in place that can detect if you're stealing large amounts of wattage using this technique. You can get away with small inductance sapping, but prepare to get in trouble if you try and power your house with it
This man always amazed me🙂

Doesn't this potentially create an ion pathway for lighting? Couldn't something really gnarly happen if a bolt discharges while being so close to the experiment?
Yes. I think that's how they get lightning to strike when there are high-speed cameras set up to study it. Fine wire as a pathway.
Yup. It's pretty reckless if you ask me.
@@tygerovi Gliders get towed with winch and steel cable probably millions of times a year, without lightning strike, as far as I know. If there isn't a thunderstorm really close by, no danger at all.

Maybe if you use a strong LASER beem pointed upwards, it will ionize the air and act as a wire. Using this method could connect the ground with the Ionosphere.
Awsome!
Very interesting concept! It seems worth exploring to generate energy.
Ask Nikola Tesla 130 years ago.
Imagine a large metal sphere on a 300' tower pulling all the energy it could from the atmosphere and broadcasting that energy wirelessly across a vast area.... Just Imagine!!
Yes... I imagine electrical appliances overcharged and exploding, vast communications interference, pacemakers going amok, people being zapped by electric shocks when touching anything conductive, fuel explosions due to omnipresent sparks, and the impossibility of turning off the lights in your bedroom, just to start with. Add to that unforeseen consequences in wildlife and maybe weather or even climate.
(That's why insulation of the electric ways is important.)
@@MariaMartinez-researcheryou don't know anything you say
@@Zamora7 Can you prove me wrong with physics and electric engineering data? Or have you already found the way to have that giant ball getting energy from the atmosphere and distributing it wirelessly - not interfering with anything?
I highly recommend you the CZcams channels Real Engineering and Technology Connections. And if you think that Tesla had already everything figured out, the channel Kathy Loves Physics & History could help you to discern the myths from the facts.
Amazing
Read carefully. Energy can be built up from a place where there's no deep grounding of buildings. Perhaps go far away in the countryside, make a deep hole put some copper down there and connect it to a well insulated wire. Make 4 points like this then connect to many high voltage caps and resistors both in series and parallel similar to a joule thief device. Now comes the tricky part, you need a solid transmitter body say pyramid shaped, with insulated bottom and pointy top the bottom 4 corners connect to the 4 separate grounds passing through the joule thief's. Elevate this up high at least 10-20 meters say on a dry wood scaffold. Now if you did everything correctly you can draw much energy through using a higher ground somewhere farther and a lower resonant antenna of similar shape with a mercury capsule for RF filter (you don't want RFs to mess up your resonance) now experiment to fine tune it, most probably you'll need a high voltage to high amperage induction coil and perhaps an oscillator to switch it on and off with ground. The higher the frequency the better. Now you need a strong UV light to ionize the air and create a ionized tunnel between transmitter and antenna for best effect then, flash close besides them, you can turn it off now and observe effects.
I was looking at the Plasma channel yesterday. 🙂 He does some fantastic experiments with plasma.
dat BLACKHOLE painting is a masterpiece 😁😁
Thanks for demonstrating something that fascinated me as a kid but I have never actually seen. One thing though, shouldn't you try it lower to the ground to verify that the spinning propellers aren't generating static from friction?
As we know it's a DC current first we will convert it into Ac current and some how stepdown voltage
A large fabric kite soaked with salt water. Use cotton cord soaked likewise.
Awesome, that's why rain drops carry charge on them
Water in the atmosphere is what _creates_ the thunderstorms and charges the atmosphere in the first place. (Droplets/ice/impurity thingies rubbing against each other.) James didn't mention it in the video, just went ~"atmosphere is charged" as if by magic
Do high or low pressure systems have an effect in the V/M?
Also, on a hot cloudless day, would you get more energy if you just went the route of setting up an outdoor thermocouple?
2:43 Wheres the swearing and beeping and stuff?
oh, right. you're not electroBoom....
😂😂
And of course a great video👍👍👍
it was satisfying to see the see the setup work right before the drone died. thank you
"Now the earth that I'm standing on" 🤣
cool stuff!
fun fact: spiders can fly using this phenomenon. They shoot a thread of web up into the air. The thread is charged by the field and is electrostatically pulled upwards. The lift can be enough to carry a small spider.
when you outside and you smell that ZAZA🍃
There's a sci fi book called 'Siva' that covers a thing called a solar tap which uses this idea.
The story is a long lost advanced ancient civilization that used pyramids with lasers firing up into the atmosphere to conduct unlimited electricity which was transmitted for use everywhere. Since metal messed up this transmitted electricity all building were made of stone.
Tesla already built it with the NewYorker hotel where he modified parts of the building. Although the plan was to weaponize the building for a Tesla based lightning weapon. It was incomplete but the modifications are still there for ppl to figure out why he built it but didn't complete his work.

"In order to actually feels something you gotta go really high" -The Action Lab Guy
Ever since I saw the golf ball get struck by lightning I've been fascinated by this concept of using the atmosphere as one giant battery
I love the Mavic Pro. My first pro drone.
I got a fair bit of static from an end fed antenna 14 floors up on a high-rise building several years ago. The spark was several inches long because a storm was brewing. Be careful out there 🤣🤣
Short people: never felt such an electric charge
Once in a lifetime and something good for being petit!
the difference is short people don't matter so there's that
Fantastic experiment! More needs to be done to further research free and zero point energy.
But the energy comapnies wouldn't like that.
The drone's rotor wash was likely responsible for much of that voltage generated. Transmission line utility workers in helicopters have to clamp the chassis of the helicopter to the conductor to equalize the voltage potential from the copter's rotor. They can draw arcs up to a foot or so on EHV lines ( > 500KV).
You could "just" take a metal-made cell phone tower, electrically isolate it from the ground and collect the electricity.
Jupiter was just being mad at him!!!🌩️⚡🌩️⚡🌩️⚡
Considering that lightning strikes the Earth about 100 times every second it's surprising that we haven't figured out a way to capture that energy and make use of it. Or I guess it's not very surprising considering that you never know where it's going to strike! (Florida, where I live, is the lightning capital of the world so that would be a good place to try such a thing).
The lightning strikes are just the accumulation if ions... If we can harvest ions before accumulating as a thunder, maybe we can make the harvesting tools more practical
Yeah, "in order to feel anything, you gotta be really high", that's what my crackhead friends told me also
This looks like a good project for ElectroBoom
Finally talking about atmospheric electricity.
you could always attach a sparkgap generator at the bottom, and use that step up in power to channel the energy into a battery bank for storage.
I think that was in the scheme from 1920s that he shown.
So yeah, theoretically possible, but probably not economically feasible even on industrial scale
Count how many times you say "and" at the end of your show. I could make a drinking game of it. Love your show, keep up the great work!
“In order to feel anything you have to get really high”… teehee 🤭
Is this not what Nikola Tesla wanted to do? To harness the electricity of our own atmosphere? This is literally insane as you could get hydrogen balloons (helium escapes after time and is forever lost but hydrogen is easier to come by) which lift up a wire. Future clean electricity?
Kinda but I think his model was having a power plant of some kind still and transmitting that energy into the atmosphere. He proved wireless power is possible and I kinda wonder how much of Teslas are in these wireless phone chargers we have now. But seems less dramatic of an effort now knowing the efffect is already there. I dunno this is something they seriously need to explore ... and a bit disappointing that they clearly knew of this effect a long time ago given the old balloon experiments he touched on. A way to generate power on a house to house basis would be such a great solution ... and I say that living in California where PG&E regularly burns down the state every summer.
@@ronpetersen2317 Yeah... It would be cool to have free electricity. would probably still be charged for it though
