Björk explains how the TV works

It's a bit dated now, but the principle is the same

I've always liked Björk, and this just shows me she's an intelligent woman who thinks about a lot of things. We can all learn a little by listening to Björk.

Poking your fingers inside a CRT TV isn't an intelligent thing to do, LOL.  There's a lot of stored energy in the anode circuit, and even more so in the power supply caps.

I'm sure someone discharged the tube and drained the caps before they opened it up

Yeah, I worried about that too, but then I remembered Björk lived past making this video in 1988
