The physics behind a tesla coil are beyond me. But wouldn’t this be a grand way to deter theives from your car? This page at Tesla Down Under has lots more pictures of tesla coils and their possible applications. Link -via Arbroath

    This is my picture. Lots of fun in the making. It is a 30 second exposure and is done by having a Tesla coil on top of the car. A long rod from the top curves down nearly to the ground and sparks jump the remaining 1-2 feet. Now if the rod is rotated, and a long exposure is taken, there will be a ring of sparks.
    This is not double exposed or altered in any other way.
    My son was apprehensive about getting into the car, but it is quite safe inside.

    I'll bet a lot of mothers and fathers would like to put one of those things in their teenage daughter's backpacks. That would make a pretty intimidating chastity belt! ;)
