Hi All!
Few months ago, i was contacted by the society who organize all
courage tests for an important italian TV show: their wanted a fear
test with sparks! :-O
during a short meeting with me, they understood that it could be
easily organized so, after few discarded ideas, the test was designed
and scheduled! :-D
I selected two members as helpers from ALTATENSIONE mailing list and
we finally moved in Rome "Cinecittà" with our appliances for setting
the test, in spite of the small duration of the test, the developement
of entire set was surprisingly longer and many-many-many people was
required (3 coilers plus one tailor, 5 carpenters, 6 cameramans, 2
audio technicians, 6 light technicians, 1 electrician and many
others..... at least 30 people were used in 5 days of development!!!!)
It was a special opportunity to know and work for the strange world of
television and, of course, a special opportunity to make known the
tesla coils in Italy, the statistics have placed "Ciao Darwin" to
first place in the audience with 24% share during the Tesla Coil test!
anyhow, the test was a disaster......
The first competitor was stopped in mid for a "scared problem", the
second refused the test after seeing the first one so the production
decided to offer only 150 points for the first team (the minimum
allowable!) and no points for the second team! :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
The video of this courage test is available here, sorry for bad audio
stream, anyway it is in Italian language.
