Don't ever do this 😉 😉

The light show is incredible. Very bright, complete with plasma fireballs. The effect is amazing.

(Soon to come: The "I'm looking for a new microwave" thread.)

OK, this could damage the microwave oven in some way or another. 😀

EDIT:

They're back!
(You need DIVX 4.12. A few people have linked to it below.)

Just ignore the audio. 🙂

The videos are back for a limited time, as I only have limited space/transfer at my ISP.

SAVE THEM IF YOU WANT THEM.
 
I put a burning match in the nuker and nothing happend. It simply ran out of oxygen and burned out! No fireballs, no interior damage, no 911 emergency calls, no fun. Whadda bummer. 🙁

Pics ? 😀
Seriously, anyone got link to some pics of this phenonema (spelling) ?
 
Oh no. PICS? Don't you guys have microwaves?

Pics will take awhile. I'll need to figure out how to make an avi with my webcam. Got any software suggestions or other tips?

i have a microwave but dont want to risk messing it up. i'm out of a job and the microwave cooks 80% of all my food.
 
Screw the match.. we used to have a microwave that would simulate an awesome show of electrical sparks and beams all on it's own without any metal added inside.. used to cook soup in it and it would leave little black marks where the bolts hit the soup.. the microwave itself left burn marks on the wall it was mounted to 🙂

Ah I miss old sparky.. 😉

at first i thought you were all a bunch of idiots because of the nature of this activity. But when i saw the video, it looked so cool. Therefore I think you are all cool 😀
 
I made another video, this time of a light bulb.

This one pops and makes a mess in the nuker, so I need to clean up now. Enough fun for the very bored tonight.

BTW, the microwave seems to work fine. It's a Panasonic made in June of 1980.
 
awesome! 😀

one last thing that i'm sure everyone wants to see is a CD! Look for an AOL CD and stick it in there 🙂
 
ROFLMAO!!!

The match one is cool-looking, but the lightbulb one was hilarious!

Thanks for sharing those awesome videos! 😀

BTW, not bad for a 22 year old microwave =)

Yeah, sure it looks cool, but you don't want to know what it does the the microwave 😉

Ah, and keep a fire-extinguisher handy if you decide to try it 😉
