Capacitors in an electrical circuit explained using the metaphor or snowmen jumping over a pit. The snowmen represent the current, and as more and more snowmen fall into the pit, the other snowmen get "scared" and fall in in a faster rate. Eventually, the snowmen stop moving along the wire once the pit (capacitor) is completely filled with snow (charge).
