"Alright, so now I'm going to show you a demonstration. This is not something to try at home. But, I've got a high voltage power supply that I built here and I'm going to show you that the gelatin here that I have hooked up, via this pin is now acting as a conductor. It's like, it's almost like a metal plate now and it's going to be attracted to the electricity coming out of this nail here and no matter where I move it, the electricity is going to be attracted to that conductor, to the gelatin. Nothing happens if I'm not near the jello, but if I'm near the gelatin, it's attracted to the gelatin. It completes a circuit. "
