Was the Duron Vaporizing Video BS?

[Amplifier]

Here's the problem I have with the link, and correct me if I'm wrong. The CPU explodes and I can see the floor. According to them the explosion was strong enough to put a hole through the table. Yet 90% of the chip can be reassembled

-The hole itself looked like a cut out.
-The way he talks sounds rehersed.
-The sound of the explosion sounds like the firecrackers I used to play with as a kid.

If I'm wrong I'm wrong, this just seems fake to me.

yes, it's a fake. An old fake.

Good catch though, most people believe it's real when they first see it.

Lmao, I still laugh everytime I see it.

Windows running on a Duron @ 4.2V. Think that is even possible?

one of my jobs was building electronics test bays for aircraft carriers. this involved uninterruptible power supplies.

one day someone messed up, and we had a "little explosion"

18 car battery size batteries, all shorting at once.

the box it shorted in was a rack mount box about 15 inches high.

the inside had an area about the size of a soccer ball, completely vaporized.

aluminum, stainless, circuit board, everything.

maybe not completely vaporized. it didn't smell too good so i didn't spend too much time looking.

probably just melted.

nice when work isn't boring.
