Never seen that one. El Paso has a fairly large coil setup that arcs a lightning bolt about 25 feet.

I built one when I was in high school that lit up about 30 flourescent bulbs in the ceiling of the cafeteria when I turned it on. Scared the hell out of the whole school! It was way cool.

You have brought back memories of my dorky, yet amusing, middle school science teacher. One day he brought in a 3 to 4 foot tall VdG generator. Among other demonstrations, he stood on a black rubber mat and zapped himself for the class. He wondered aloud why he was not well enough insulated to lessen the shock to his hand. I learned later that in some black rubber mats the coloring agent privides conductivity.
