Science teacher mucks up!

Post by SillyBilly » Tue Jan 08, 2008 4:25 pm

Hello,
We were in science today, learning about electriacal transformers, so as the teacher goes on to say how they can turn the electrical voltage up, he plugs athe leads from a 12v power pack in to an exposed transformer, as he does this there is a crack, a bang (the transformer hitting the table), and a "owch", as the teacher electricutes himself, with what I belive is 120v! The stupid idiot should of turned the power pack off!

At my last school, my science teacher spent more time teaching us about Elvis Presly than teaching us science! Still, he was very friendly, and never got cross once.

Our science teacher believed that shouting made everything alright :roll: The technician was the best as he was into railways!

Sadly you only get what you paid for - that is what your parents paid for by Council Tax.
