Experiment #451: Empty Microwave
(Rated PG) In this video, I'm microwaving nothing. Seriously, there's just an empty microwave running for 35 minutes (sped up so that you don't get too bored) to see if running an empty microwave can fry it. Well, it didn't fry the microwave, but the inside of it was VERY hot afterwards, much hotter than when an experiment catches on fire. Because there was no experiment, there was no verdict either. Although in truth, I don't recommend doing this because it may wear down on the magnetron. Consider this an April Fool's special of sorts. Plus someone, believe it or not, has been requesting me, no, BEGGING me to do this for the longest time. It got to where I couldn't keep putting this off because I promised I'd do it, and so I figured April Fool's Day was perfect. Next episode will ACTUALLY feature something being microwaved, I promise. Just not sure what it will be yet. Microwave Me, now in its 16th season is now the second longest continually running microwave show on YouTube, while being filmed in 1080p for the best quality and as always stars Captain Microwave as the show's host and producer, who for this episode uses a 600-watt Proctor-Silex microwave.
