I used that condenser trick many many times. At the Chevy dealer we used to charge them up and put them on the work bench when a salesman came close. They would not learn to keep their hands off. Amazing how many times the same guys would pick up a charged condenser!

We also used to charge them and toss them to someone. The normal reaction was to catch it. ZAP!

We glued a nickle to the floor,(that's like a quarter now) and watched how many people tried to pick it up. It was just past where the write up desk was, and no one should to the area, marked employees only. But sneak and try to pick it up they would.

Between the two, talk about cheap entertainment.
