The maker is probably not aware of the current battery sizes
He might be schocked by a batteries potential
While making such devices, one should be grounded to reality to avoid making such mistakes
Quick hand warmer.
And warmer!
In short, this is a battery handle.
It will unleash the battery's potential
Might be terminal though
Perhaps, but I think we’ll see a high level of resistance.
That might be a hot take.

I once made a deadplug, I was kinda distracted and ended up with a cable with two male plugs. Hangs on my shop wall as memento for "focus on what you're doing" or something.
It's a suicide cord. Works great for generators
Considering that a 12V battery has an internal resistance of 20 milliohms, the potential current through this thing would be approximately 600A.
It might be too hot to handle (pun intended)
You can also get that from just the label. The CCA rating (cold cranking amps) is the max current that specific battery can supply in short bursts. 600 CCA is pretty typical, but I've seen up to 900 in the batteries I ship.

Just remember to cut it when you dispose the battery, so that sea turtles won't get stuck in it.
Perfectly. Legal. Thrill.
Hmm. Giving it away a bit here. He cringes well before it discharges.
Obviously, Mehdi is an electrical engineer. The "dumb guy making things explode" is a persona he puts up to teach people about the dangers and wonders of electricity.
That's... immensely cool. I wish him luck in his dangerous endeavors.

Oh he new it was gonna be spicy
It was the last thing they made
With that hand, anyway.
Took me a min to realize...
I am a "ask me anything" Tech, ask me anything!
How long can you hold the handle once it's attached to a fully loaded battery?

Why does it smell like BBQ in here?
If it's plastic, then it's fine.
A bit of copper would spice things up

that's a killer gadget!
Users are calling it a shockingly good invention.
