  1. At 7:18 "The radar equipment ... generated a great deal of static electricity. After three hours of operation every metal part of the fuselage would be so charged that touching it would result in a powerful shock." What utter nonsense - must be an AI written script. Static electricity is DC and cannot build up across different parts of a metal enclosure. Radar operates at high frequency - UHF at a minimum. At these frequencies you cannot feel it. It can burn, and you'll feel the burn, but you cannot feel it as an electric shock. DC or radar frequencies, there is just no possible way for a three hour build-up time. Ice might take 3 hours to melt, but ice is pretty much an electrical insulator. If you can't even get that right, I wonder how much else of this video is just made up nonsense.
