In a celebration of reaching 10,000 subscribers on Youtube, I blew up some pieces of wire with my 2500uF / 2kV Maxwell energy discharge capacitor storing 4kJ of energy. I also started a new dedicated slow motion video channel, please subscribe if you like to see more non-electronics videos recorded at high speeds: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCB2qu77PCr5i9zcs0sOhp4w/
