What are the dangers of fractal burning? Can fractal burning be done safely?

Fractal burning also called Lichtenberg, is a process that creates designs on wood using high-voltage electricity and a conductive solution.

The patterns and design look like lightning strikes. Deputy Billeb said the fractal burning practice is sometimes done by using high voltage from the microwave.

What are the dangers of fractal burning?

Fractal burning has killed and could kill you.

Some of those who died were experienced in using the process and some were not. What is common to all of them: fractal burning killed them. High voltage electricity is an invisible killer; the user cannot see the danger.

Can fractal burning be done safely?

Fractal burning is a dangerous practice which exposes the user to high-voltage electricity. The manufacture or assembly equipment for fractal burning- referred to as Lichtenberg machines-is also potentially dangerous.
