The Tinsel in the Wall Plug

About Christmastime when I was 15 years old, with the tree all decorated, I wondered what would happen if I took a piece of the lead tinsel we still used then and fed it through the holes in the ends of a light plug, and plugged it in. Not exactly a genius move.

Instantaneous loud POP, louder than a gunshot, and a black streak a foot long up the wall!
