This just came up on my YT suggestions just now (apologies if this has been threaded elsewhere). Jaw dropping.

Yup pretty dumb and dangerous idea. :--
Personnel dangers aside, this type of "test jig" can also damage many parts with it's 180VDC open circuit voltage.

Oh my, it’s another one of those TEDIOUS “look how clever I am” type videos “I’m too clever, my ingenuity is beyond words, so I’ll play some generic music instead”

This is the “TikTok” generation, where everyone thinks their poorly-conceived ideas are worth sharing, that they’ve just split the atom, and that their “genius hacks” involving a lawn mower and rice pudding are going to be a… <cringe hard>… “game changer”

It’s like their silent actions are saying “LOOK! STEP ONE - NOW HOW AMAZED ARE YOU?”

It’s the internet equivalent of what happens when chimpanzees are given typewriters.
