Coilers,

I have a reprinted book "Electricity at High Pressures and Frequencies" by
Henry L. Transtrom, originally printed in 1921.  Among other things, there
are a number of stage presentation type photos of him doing really dangerous
things such as lighting an 80 watt bulb between a tesla coil secondary and a
metal electrode held in his mouth, and other scary demonstrations of passing
RF through his body.

Question - is he one of the few who was electrocuted by a Tesla Coil?

P.s.  By the way, if anyone wants to buy the book (new condition, 247 pages,
5" x 7" from Lindsey but I think he no longer stocks it), contact me
offline.  Whoever makes the best offer over $10 in the next week can have
it, and I will take care of the postage in the U. S.
