I think this thread goes to show, we're all prone to being fooled - regardless of how intelligent/educated someone is, if you think you' can't be fooled, then you're more prone to it. This guy has been going a while and has some great videos - and used to fool many-a-tech-journalist (who aren't exactly the smartest of the bunch). Good to see data on batteries, but.. really? I wonder how many of you lot "ate the onion" too ?
It is clearly a joke, with no malicious trolling - although I did read that several people have microwaved their iphones, wrapped routers in foil, and broken DVD's to get faster internet because of this chap. The world is full of, what many would consider stupid/laughable ideas about tech/science, but this guy is the least of our problems.
