I had watched Jackie Chan's film "Tuxedo" yesterday; the story is like this - Jackie gets to wear a magical `Tuxedo' (jacket) owned by somebody else; the jacket can be `programmed' to make its wearer a Kung-Fu expert, or a great dancer or a crack sharp-shooter .... A jacket may not make you a Kung-Fu expert; but combined with chance and the laws of Physics, it can certainly do some weird things. Follow the link below to find out more.... Man builds up 30,000 volts of static ... I had a feel of the magic of electrostatic charge some time back when I built the circuit described here. Be sure to try your hand at it and prepare to be amazed!
