      It’s alternative current. You can’t see it because it’s a still image, but that alligator clip is actually alternating back and forth between the two terminals 60 times per second.

        baha I mean, that still wouldn’t produce much current at all depending on the capacitance of the lights and the voltage of that battery, but… funny beats reality on the far side.

      Plot twist, the real battery is in the lights themselves, but the deer really cares about safety so he always uses a ground.
