Seen the video before.
mistakes:
1- electrical tape is not a conductor, it is an insulator.
2- connecting 2 positive terminals will not allow for the flow of electricity.
3- leaving the batteries in the above state for 24 hours or trying this over and over will not charge the dead battery
4- Alkaline cells are not made to be recharged, thus when the electrolyte is used up, you can't charge it
5- Lemon juice will not speed the reaction, but it will make a great corrosive agent on the terminals
6- a dead alkaline can never be recharged very far at all
Thats about all i can see, i am sure there are more

I think it's from a gag site... It's a little subtle and not obvious immediately, but if you visit his website it becomes obvious if you watch a few of them..
high budget for parody, I actually think I really like it!

Yeah I just checked out that site and it definitely a gag site. I really hope people don't try these things and waste their time.
EDIT - hahahah check out the comments on his site. Here is one, sorry for their bad language, remove it if needed.
none of the guides you posted work! i did the microwave one and i actually burned my mouth from a banana. the battery thing still hasnt worked and ive had it set up for over a month now THERE STILL DEAD. ive logged into google over 200 times and still nothing.... im beginning to think that your full of poop and just trying to pull a fast one on people.

Be careful when opening this link, there is some "Ad remover" trying to install itself when you are looking at it!
I did not try checking this out, but had to shut down my browser to stop it.
Running AVG and AdAware to remove anything left from the intrusion.

I had an ad appear over the top of the video. I much prefer YouTube. And I see the http://www.marksinfinitesolutions.com/ homepage uses YouTube as well.
His videos are really funny. But how did he get back to New York airport again?
Edit: Mate, that goggles video is funny. Carbon monoxide, ammonia, and hydrochloric acid. All with a straight face. But it would be even funnier to actually see the bunny on a black diamond trail.
