Can someone help me figure out an episode

I have a vague memory of some small metal object levitating off the table due to having some huge electrical load running through it. I also seem to remember Adam almost trying to catch it and pulls his hands back realising he’d probably die if he touched it. I’ve searched Google for flying, levitating, electrical and near death myths and I can’t find anything relating to this. Does anyone know 1. Of this actually happened or I dreamt it. 2. What episode it is in? Thank you.

Are you thinking of the season 4 anti-grav/christmas tree lights episode?
One of the devices they test is called an HV DC lifter or ionocraft, that uses electrical current to create downdrafts of ionized air. It looked like a little triangle made of tinfoil and sticks.

Yes that’s the one! Thank you very much. I searched for an hour or two yesterday to no avail

This is definitely it. Adam wasn’t part of that myth though, that was a built team one, so OP may be mixing their myths up.

Jamie did go into the room to have a look at it was was very amused that it actually worked, but Adam was indeed not there.

I wonder if OP is combining that myth with the battery myth where he touches it and it’s hooked up to a cattle fence and it zaps him?

That has to be it.

Possible memory mixed with "Baghdad Battery"?
