What kind of probe is this?

In this situation a 10X probe would glow as bright.

The ground of that probe is the same as the EZ hooks: wire in to wire out.
Of course it is,as anyone with more than 5 minutes experience knows.

I did not suggest that a proper probe would allow him to do what he did.----other posters had pointed out that the earth lead would connect whatever point it was clipped on to earth,so I perhaps unwisely believed that he understood that would still be the case.

What I was pointing out,(& actually said)was that even with transformer isolation,the cruddy "probe" he used would not be a safe proposition.
