The videos were discovered on March 28, 2007, though one of the videos had been uploaded to YouTube as early as March 19, 2007. A mysterious MySpace profile link was then discovered on March 28, 2007, which featured another cryptic video and four new audio samples.

An article on Pitchfork Media on 29 March 2007 later confirmed the authenticity
History of electrochemistry considered the brain to be the most important organ for the secretion of this "electric fluid" and that the nerves conducted the fluid to the muscles. He believed the tissues acted similarly to the outer and inner surfaces of Leyden jars. The flow of this electric fluid provided a stimulus to the muscle fibres. Galvani's scientific colleagues generally accepted his views, but Alessandro Volta, the outstanding professor of physics at the University of Pavia, was not convinced by the analogy between muscles and Leyden jars. Deciding that the frogs' legs used in Galvani's experiments served only as an electroscope, he
