5[[https://www.youtube.com/user/ElectricalBeast ElectricalBeast]] (real name Adam, according to his Website/YouTube profile) is a ''very'' British Website/YouTube user whose most famous work is a LetsPlay of ''VideoGame/SuperMario64''. At 60 parts, it's very long, and often has many funny moments, exacerbated by his hilarious accent, rather impressive playstyle and happy-go-lucky personality, coupled with a surprisingly expansive, if crazy story he created and tried to apply to the levels as he played through the game. The second-to-last episode was released in April 2008, but due to computer problems, the final episode was put in DevelopmentHell until Christmas 2010, when EB uploaded it as a gift to all his watchers. In September 2010 he started a Let's Play of ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'', and in April 2011 he began an LP of VideoGame/SuperMarioBrosCrossover. He may also be starting an LP of ''VideoGame/SuperMarioSunshine'' and ''VideoGame/{{Runescape}}''.

7WebVideo/{{Retsupurae}} has done several [=RPs=] of him, and have noted that he, along with LetsPlay/BillyMC and [=MuscleBomber2021=], is one of their favorite [=LPers=].
8----
9!!Electrical Beast provides examples of these tropes:
10
11* BadassBoast: [[spoiler: After a long absence of videos Electrical Beast makes one "I AVE RETURNED!"]]
12* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: The {{Aesop}} of episode 16 of VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}.
13* BerserkButton: Apparently, Chuckyas do not like being called 'Bomberman'.
14* BunnyEarsLawyer: Narrating wacky storylines for the game while being tremendously competent at playing it is his trademark.
15* CatchPhrase: "Hey, this is Electrical Beast, AKA the [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Jolteon]] of Let's Plays! And welcome back to Episode [X] of Let's Play Super Mario 64! Well, on today's episode..."
16** "And that was the [X]th Star, guys!"
17** "TELEPOR!"
18** "[[EvilLaugh Gra-ah-ah!]] This is [[BigBad Bowser]] here!"
19** "See ya... Bhai!..."
20* ChristmasEpisode: The final ''Mario 64'' episode, as well as a bonus one for New Year's.
21* CloudCuckooLander: His LP of ''Mario 64'' includes, among other things, teleportation, time machines, [[Franchise/DragonBall Super Saiyan]] powers, and Bowser's Evil (Evow) Test.
22* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: "And look at how high it is! It's an extremely high level..."
23* DownerEnding: In episode 16 of Minecraft, he switched back to Mario for an adventure...in which Mario nearly drowned and failed to get the Star he was after.
24* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The first 20 or so episodes are more laid-back, with less humor.
25* ElmuhFuddSyndwome: The man's accent is so absurdly thick that it's hard to understand at times.
26* EvilLaugh: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azRKo6d4W3I#t=14m09s It's very off-putting,]] given his usually cheery demeanor.
27* ExcitedEpisodeTitle: Let's Play Super Mario 64! [Episode Title]!
28* FakeOutOpening: "And welcome back to episode 46 of VideoGame/BanjoKazooie! I mean Super Mario 64."
29* FanFiction: Well, let's be fair, the guy is applying quite a bit of artistic liberty.
30* {{Flanderization}}: It's like he turned up all his idiosyncrasies up to eleven for the last episode of his LetsPlay of ''VideoGame/SuperMario64''.
31* GoMadFromTheRevelation: It was a fairly normal VideoGame/SuperMario64 LP until Episode 24, where he revealed Mario could teleport. It only got more crazy from there.
32* HarmlessVillain: His view of Bowser.
33--> "So Bowser is using Mario's own power to destroy Mario. Isn't Bowser pathetic?"
34* ItOnlyWorksOnce: Mario's power to turn back/stop time can only be used once. [[spoiler:It's used during the final battle with Bowser, after he falls off the side of the level with no lives left.]]
35* ItsPersonal: His reaction to Chuckyas after one threw him off a cliff.
36* KillItWithFire: In Episode 26 of ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'', [[spoiler: the forest and Treezilla burned down]]. Luckily, he had a backup made... [[spoiler: which was erased due to a glitch]].
37** [[spoiler: Or not. it was a joke for AprilFoolsDay]].
38* [[WritersCannotDoMath Lets Players Cannot Do Math]]: See TimeTravel below.
39* MassiveMultiplayerCrossover: Sort of; some attacks he says Mario and Bowser are using are from Franchise/{{Pokemon}}, and he says that Rainbow Ride is like Anime/DragonBallZ. He says Mario has Super Saiyan powers, too.
40** It's confirmed in Episode 13 of Minecraft that [[spoiler:his Mario videos and Minecraft videos have the same Mario.]]
41* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: In Super Mario 64, he names one of the enemies after himself.
42** They're actually called [[http://www.mariowiki.com/Amp Amps.]]
43* {{Not}}: From eisode 24, "Mario's always been a good parachuter. Not!"
44* NotSoHarmlessVillain: Bowser, as revealed in [[spoiler: episode 13 of Minecraft]].
45* OutGambitted: Turns out when Mario stopped Bowser's Time Machine, [[spoiler: Bowser used its mystical energy to erase Mario's memory, then trap him in the Minecraft world]].
46* QuintessentialBritishGentleman: Sort of.
47%%* WebVideo/{{Retsupurae}}: Nonetheless, Slowbeef and Diabetus ended up liking him, saying he was one of their favorite [=LPers=]. He took the riffing in good stride.
48* RunningGag: "Teleport!"
49** Calling Koopa the Quick 'Koopa the Slow'.
50* ShoutOut: He frequently does these for other Let's Players in his videos.
51* TakeUpMySword: Luigi took over Minecraft for Mario after he left to be in the Mushroom Kingdom.
52* TeleportSpam: In Episode 17 of Minecraft, Mario went [[ContinuityNod back to Boo's Mansion]] and learned how to multi-teleport.
53* TimeTravel: His interpretation of Tick Tock Clock is a time machine, and Bowser plans to use it to turn back time by 10 years [[WritersCannotDoMath to when Mario was a baby]] and get the stars earlier.
54** He also varies between saying that Mario has the power to stop time and turn back time--but only once!
55*** ''Both'' versions of the power ended up being used in the finale.
56%%* UsefulNotes/TheWestCountry
57* TimeSkip: On April 15 2008 episode 59 came out but it would not be until September 19 2010 (aside from a few short test videos) that he would start doing lets plays again. By this time LetsPlay/ElectricalBeast was older and less upbeat than he was before.
58* TreehouseOfFun: He built one in Minecraft, christening it 'Treezilla'.
59* VaporWare: The conclusion, Episode 60, took over two years to make, and many fans lost hope until he began his Minecraft LP.
60* VerbalTic: Huh!
61* VictoryIsBoring: The reason [[spoiler: Bowser gave Mario his memory back]] is because he got bored without him, and wanted to finish him personally.
62* VillainBall: "I think [Bowser] made a mistake [[spoiler: by giving our memory back]]."
63* WhamEpisode: Episode 13 of Minecraft. [[spoiler: Bowser appears to talk to Mario via a painting, and reveals that he used the time machine's mystical energy to erase Mario's memory, create the monsters in the Minecraft world, and teleport him here]]. It ends on a cliffhanger.
64* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Justified in episode 46 or the Super Mario 64 Let's Play.
65-->"The best thing to do when you get in this level is try and find as much spider thingies as you can. So just kill 'em under any circumstance. I know they're animals with feelins', but they're only a game character. [[SignatureLaugh HUH!]]"
66* ZombieApocalypse: Plays these in Minecraft.
