Do you happen to know a good video about the issues?

Watch mehdi electoeboom and Steve mould's follow up argument about who is right.

Veritasium also made a follow-up video addressing their arguments. After that, they kind of went silent and seemingly sided with Veritasium

He really showed only induction in that video, that everyone knew about. And a very small current only goes in the first pulse. Rest of the current flows as you would normally expect. Electroboom explained it pretty well and this video didn't really disprove or argue against that at all

Thanks! I couldn't find anything with Steve Mould but I watched ElectroBoom's conversation with Derek and it was very interesting.
