Default Water in Electric Field: Violation of the Second Law of Thermodynamics

The second law of thermodynamics is OBVIOUSLY false. See turbulent motion of water in an electric field:

The motion is powered by:

(A) electric energy?

(B) ambient heat?

If (B) is the answer (it is!), the second law is violated - the work the motion is able to do (e.g. by rotating a waterwheel) will be done at the expense of heat absorbed from the surroundings.
