I'm deeply curious about this! Is it possible to recreate the situation at home, or does this require something miswired with the mains power supply or power adapter, or an older MacBook Pro?

connect the two prong adapter, take your shoes and socks off, feet on the ground... feel the vibe! the best shocks you get at the edges or at the pointy edges in that groove to lift the display up.

right, it's so powerful it's also interfering with your sarchasm detector, apparently.
