Sure, but I didn’t say electricity flows through wires, I said it was a shorter path for electrons to travel.

Also I was joking, this is obviously not how electricity works, otherwise you totally would be able to charge faster this way.

I like that video a lot, but that guy primarily talks about electromagnetism and alternating current; neither of those are a factor in a lightning cable, or in his car battery/light bulb experiment. Those are both using direct current.
