Meet Styropyro, the YouTube mad scientist who looked at 100 car batteries and thought, “Cute, but let’s go nuclear.” Cue 400 batteries wired together with a homemade mega-switch made of a thousand pounds of copper, because why use capacitors when you can risk turning your backyard into a mini EMP zone? The result? Insane currents warping metal, blowing up rods, and culminating in a ferrofluid fireball that looked like Oppenheimer’s low-budget cousin—all while the batteries survived for round two. Science: now with 160,000 amps of “hold my beer” energy.
Man wires up 400 car batteries in ‘insane’ experiment to see what would happen
