Video: Two Swedish guys try and bake a cake while being subjected to minor electric shocks

When baking a cake is not a piece of cake…

When baking a cake is not a piece of cake…

For the culinary clowns in JOE Towers at least, the baking of a cake is a ridiculously tough task as it is and soon descends into a monstrous mess of eggs, flour, chocolate and whatever other ingredients we might try and pack in there.

Imagine then, trying to bake one when the muscles in your hands and arms are hooked up to a device that jolts you with minor electric shocks at various intervals? As you might expect, it turns into an absolute farce, but is very funny to watch at the same time.

The finished product is better than anything JOE could muster and at the end of it all, the two lads in question are joined by a female colleague, with all three making hilarious attempts to try and drink a glass a water, an exercise we would love to try out at some stage, possibly even with the water substituted for a more potent, beer-shaped liquid.
