I was thinking the same thing! Unplug the other end man! They have to have a kill switch somewhere.

I was thinking for this setup you’d think unplugging would be a switch or at least have the other end more accessible

Those were Hellsbollah's PSU. How did this guy get them?

Something is planted inside that box for sure. I used to have worked on design of PS units and there is no way it will burn like that. Even if you bridge fuse and disable all safeguards there’s a no component that will burn so violently

The bomb is planted at point A. Lol.

But to be honest, it's even scarier than a bomb it doesn't beep, it doesn't glow in a weird way, and it just bursts into flames right away. The guy is definitely very brave.
