tough crowd...

Tough audience. Haha great presentation, though!!

How wasn't the crowd laughing?

Mehdi when I look at you I hear: "Trust me i'm an engineer". Cheers

I was there! Front row. The thing that impressed me most was how, when a couple things didn't get as many laughs as you might've expected and it got a bit awkward, you recovered and kept going and didn't let it affect the rest of your presentation. I would have frozen up and become flustered and felt embarrassed, so, I found that kind of inspiring. Comedic timing is much tougher in person, in front of an audience that, for the most part, didn't know anything about you and didn't know what to expect. Most of the crowd spent the whole presentation with a confused look on their faces, not for the content, but because they didn't know if you were serious or joking. Was it rehearsed slapstick or genuine clumsiness and ignorance of electrical dangers? Don't take their silence for boredom or disinterest, it was shock. Lots of very real gasps and people looking around wondering if their lives were in danger. Parents were always kind of leaning towards the door to see if they had to rush their children away. It must've felt tough for you, but for me, in the crowd, it was delightful to see them so squirmy and unsure :). For a first public appearance I thought it was great. Hope you return for next year. Most of your fans were actually people who were busy with their own booths, volunteering, etc, and regretted missing it. It's great to have this recorded to pass along.

Mehdi should definitely do demonstrations at schools. Students would love this stuff!

i like how you're basically the steve irwin of electrical engineering we laugh at your ballsiness while learning stuff

In this crowd I'd be the guy going "HAW HAW HAW" while all the crusty fuckers sit there dead behind the eyes. You even explained the deadpan slapstick humour you use at the beginning and they didn't pick up on it to a significant degree. Must be all those 3D printer fumes the 'maker' types love so much.

Haha xD "I'd never done that before. Good thing I'm alive" What is wrong with this audience, I would have burst laughing

Hertz more, A C what you did there

No one got your "AC Hertz much more" joke :'(

Being and electrical engineer, I absolutely love your channel. It helps me understand the concepts and reasoning behind a lot of material we cover in class.

he used muzo to create silence for the camera 😂😂

I teach an EE lab at the university I attend and I have shown some of your videos to my class. My students find them hilarious. I like how the videos are funny, yet still provide educational information. Also, good job on your Faire presentation! Keep up the good work.

That audience sucked. You are such a funny man. They didn't get your humor I guess...I would of been laughing my ass off..great job man!

I love how this man is even branding himself. A simple thing like showing his unibrow at the end of presentation the same way he does in his videos are amazing and cunningly genius

good presentation man! its not easy for an introverted person to do a big show like that

AC hertz more :D

ElectroBOOM: Falls down Crowd: ElectroBOOM: Tough Crowd

this presentation took place in my city, if you guys are wondering why the crowd is dead, it's because the city itself is dead as fuck, filled with goddamn seniors

Look how far we have come. Awesome work Mehdi

the crowd.....

It's a pity because people ACTUALLY thought you were stuffing up and hurting yourself and were probably scared for their lives. LOL.

I wish my engineering instructors had the sense of humor like yours. How you present EE on this channel is outstanding and I look forward to new videos.

Awesome. From one introvert science teacher to another, great job and thank you.

Watched the whole and didn't lose interest once. Great job!

Greetings from Barranquilla, Colombia. I wish there were more teachers like you in our country to show us how to apply electrical knowledge/stuff in our lives. You're awesome.

I was laughing like mad! However in person I would be terrified for your health. I think that's why the crowd was so tough.

Good presentation skills, especially if it is your first time in front of a live audience. Bravo.

What a tough crowd... you're unique Mehdi, keep going on, you're a huge source of inspiration !

Keep doing these presentations, you'll eventually get better crowd!

mehdi i cannot tell you how much i love your videos. i really enjoy watching them and watching you get hurt is pretty funny but the fact that you teach things the way you do is just fantastic. i learn constantly and i cannot get enough of your knowledge. please don't stop making videos. please. hope you read this. and good luck :D

Today I learned that DC is a cool guy And not to mess with AC

Man, if only science teachers would take half of the initiative that you explain electricity with, I would have been much more interested in the field at a younger age. Also Medhi, have you ever done any experimentation with any joule thief circuits? If not I would love to see your explanation and a new way to modify it from your perspective.

This is like watching a professional standup comedians first standup, the audience is silent half the time, but here years later, he has made his living off of perfecting these jokes and reaching millions with his comedic genius.

turn this into a drinking game, every time he nearly kills himself take a shot.

I enjoy the positive comments you tell yourself... To fear enough to never try... what a Hellish realm... Keep up the great educational content... Maybe one day we can get a Utopia where we don't work to live... but being able to follow one's passion in life...(which is every changing for some, lol) Also, what about electricity and farming (ElectroCulture)... being able to grow plants faster, maybe uptake more nutrients as well...

10:48 They clapped because he didn't zapped himself.

You are the only person on KZfaq that I watch every video as soon as it comes out. Your videos are entertaining, informative, and super funny. You are educating and warning at the same time and I enjoy it. Never stop making videos! I would have been dying in this audience and hanging on every word!

Great video Mehdi! :D I love all of your videos, always enjoy watching you! Keep up the good work man, keep safe :')

dude you need an anti peh for your mic

10:51 “it’s electronics, it’s not me” something I’d expect medhi to say lol

I'm glad you found way to teach people. You're the kind of individual that is the best for this, you have no ego, you're kind, humane, funny, full of life. 💙

Hi :) I am an Elecronics Technician, and i am following your channel for a while now, and it´s always a pleasure to see how you handle everything. I am a Fan of yours.. And i really hope you keep going on making this excellent work. I laugh a lot with your experiences, and you are an excellent professional. Thnks for sharing. Best regards from Portugal ;)

"Well, i expected it to kill me." ElectroBOOM last words

i feel like im in science class again im really enjoying this presentation very well done

love your work mehdi, thanks for giving me a little more insight on this. Youre awesome!

Wow, that was your first presentation and you had such a tough crowd and just kept going! Wonderful

GREAT presentation! You should've played your electric guitar though ;D

I remember the ESD gun video, my dad sent me that video and it was so funny that I subscribed!

Yeah, tough crowd. Props for doing it anyway. You deserve a lot more laughs and a lot more attention, and good on you for educating people.

welcome back !!! man you have so much fans here in tunisia :D we are waiting for more videos :)

Excellent! Too bad the audience seemed a bit cold and resistant. :D

i weld with car batteries regularly, i assembled my electric tractor with car batteries and jumper cables. i find 3 batteries wired to give 36v with 1/16th inch welding rods works great. even though i have a 150A continuous duty stick welder and a nice hobart MIG, i preffer the batteries because you can leave them outside in the rain.

Great presentation, Mehdi. Keep doing what you do.

You have the best kind of videos Mehdi, funny and educational!

This video is cute, we can see more of the real you. 😊 Good luck in all your future beginnings, my friend.

Reminds me of when I was much younger at a farm. Whilst everyone was inside, I went out exploring - and tried to climb over the fence into what I believe was the bull enclosure. I didnt see the warning sign since it was overgrown with plants. The charge on the fence seemed to operate in pulses. I managed to get halfway over, touching the metal grille, before it actually zapped me - and it was the most intense full-body pain I've ever felt. My vision blacked out and I just fell in a heap. From that day onwards I've had a fear of electricity. Nothing hurts like electricity does - and I've certainly experienced a lot of other physical trauma in my life (I've even had a Lumbar puncture for a slipped spinal disc). Right down to your bones, like being burned from the inside out and every muscle in your body cramps and constricts at the same time. I had heart issues for weeks after the fence incident, though I never saw a doctor about it. But I admire what Mehdi does here. Its informative, fun and entertaining.

Can't imagine how far he came .

6 Year old video. Still awesome. Thanks for your work Electro!

"AC hertz much more" excellent

Let's say im interested in electicity and would like to experiment. What would be a good place to start?

Humor should always be used in education, it keeps everything interesting! Great presentation Electro Boom

Mehdi great preformace wish I could have seen it. Also I'd like to compliment you on how you are active in your comments unlike most other you tubers.

But will it weld, that is the question.

Watt is love? Baby don't hertz me, don't hertz me, no more...

Mehdi you're the best! congratulations for your presentation.

You are a legend buddy. Keep up the excellent work. As an apprentice sparky your videos are very informative and life saving :)

I am your #1 fan electroboom

Loved it i wish i was present there to see that live

And the *Mr. Short Circuit* award goes to Mehdi Sadaghdar :D You're awesome bro!

Great video / presentation man, loved it!

I love your performance method!!!

2019 here. Love your videos. If your sweaty 12 and 24 volts will tingle a little to sting a little. lol Figured that out the hard way.

Mehdi, I gotta say that was a great presentation. I had no idea you could weld with a couple of car batteries! Also, I couldn't speak in front of any kind of audience, I commend you for that.

I wish I could have been there to give you a better applause.

Rough crowd :/

For a first time in front of an audience, you were very articulate. Very good presentation, informative and entertaining. Careful that you don't hurt yourself though. :C

You can do so much more of it!) Nice start! And as always - what an adorable monobrow

great job

don't look directly! *brrrz* oowwww!

sir you have an absolute knowledge and explaining power in simple terms

😄You are such a fun!! I started challenge of watching all your videos!

Dear Mehdi im having troubles staying awake can you show me how to make a device to electrocute me if I fall asleep? maybe something that triggers if i lean my head thanks you, you are awsome dude, love your unibrown

You have my applauses. Love your videos and sense of humor:) In my opinion, introvert people are more nice and interesting. Believe me, I'm an introvert :) "Don't try this at home!" (C)

best presentation ever. Also, I see that even if someone is as famous as you, it can get nervous too if it's in front of too much people. PD: sorry for bad english

I love all your videos... much love :)

Great performance! I think the audience could have used a little more education of what AC and DC actually are, and also what it means to have an open or closed circuit. Perhaps that's why they had such a small response to your presentation. I think it was great, though. Congrats on the live performance and may many more follow!

i touched 132VDC and it doesn't hurt but I touched 80VAC and it hurts like hell.

It is actually ABSOLUTELY safe to look at the welding process from few meters away. There is a chart available online that specifies what is the distance and how long can you look absolutely safely.

Honestly I'm gonna apologise on behalf of Calgary cause as someone who was living there for 2 years I have top be honest everything in the city went to shit about a year ago and people are just depressing there. You should have got a lot more applause as you just deserve it for your bravery up there and the recovery for every fuck up was so smooth I didn't even see it as an accident I saw it as a comedic stunt as though you were just doing another video. Great job on the performance, Mehdi.

1:08 at least they could laugh at that.

Excellent presentation man, tough audience tho. Probably quite hard to display humor when they aren't exactly sure whats going on, or whether or not you're joking.

I have watched some of your videos. I am currently studying Industrial Maintanance. I really enjoy what you are teaching. Please keep up the good work.

I got my first experience with voltage/amps as a five year old. Sticking a metal nail into a 230V socket holding it with a metal scissor (cause in my five year old head that felt like a secure thing to do), and grounding myself to the linoleum floor. It was both enlightening and electrifying at the same time. But I hated those curls I got for decades. In any case - awesome channel you got. Keep up the funny and educating efforts!

In Germany its 230V AC

Okay.. so why is it that I cannot weld with right out from the 220 V wall socket? Is it because the current is limited by the 15 amp fuses in the distribution box?

Man, I'd kill to have the knowledge you have. This was a great presentation.

Most entertaining video ever :), much love 💕
