Yeah I really liked the AlphaPheonix video[0] where he actually built the thing in a field and explained the entire effect properly.

I'm not entirely sure if Derek didn't really understand what he was presenting in that video or deliberately based it on a really misleading bullshit gotcha to troll people and stir debate for clicks, and neither reflects very well on him.

His latest video on open ended wires is very much worth a watch.

That one was absolutely amazing, it (and the electric current maze solving one) brought my intuition for electricity to a whole new level.

Link please? I can’t find it
