This weird video tutorial claims that you can charge an ipod using the default USB connector using an Onion soaked in electrolytic solution (energy drinks like Gatorade)..:D... I haven't tried it.... but found it really weird....!!!

Need:
1) Large Onion. -- 1 pc
2) Screwdriver. -- 1 pc
3) Energy Drink (for e.g. Gatorade) -- 2 large cups
4) iPod and its USB connector.

Procedure:
1) Drill 2 holes on either side of the onion using the screwdriver.
2) Soak the onion with two drilled holes in gatorade for 30 min.
3) Wipe out excess fluid from the Onion.
4) Plug your USB connector (attached to iPod on the other end) into the onion.
