CRT Screen Static Sparks

Me rubbing my hand on a medium-sized, powered-on CRT television, producing static-electricity sparks.

Noise-reduced. Trimmed to remove dead air and unusable audio. Notch filtered at 15660Hz to remove the CRT whine, then high-pass filtered (48dB) at 100Hz to remove handling noise (additional HPF'ing may be possible, depending on which part you end up using).

Recorded with handheld ZOOM H1 several inches/centimeters away from the screen. Captured as 24 bit, 96kHz WAV.
