MicrowaveMeShow Ten Year YouTube Anniversary Celebration Video MicrowaveMeShow 2022-10-24 | Experiment #514: "Fireworks" Light Bulb(2 of 2 "After The Show" Anniversary Specials)This is it! This is the last one! The show officially ended in December of 2020 after I'd posted the hourglass video, the series finale. Well, this is the channel finale! We all knew this day would come eventually. Remember, when you are watching this, you're watching the last Microwave Me video ever made. This, being the final video ever, I wanted to make something special, despite there being a very limited budget due to getting almost no views nowadays. This is a special light bulb, not too costly, but still cool. I bought two of them just in case something went wrong. It did! As you can see, I cleaned out Zoey right before doing this. I was actually amazed at how perfect I was able to clean her. Well, I forgot to press record. So, I had to do it all over again with a dingy microwave. It doesn't matter because everything you needed to see is perfectly visible. I'm going to, for the final time, answer a few of your questions like I used to do in my clip shows.Q: Why did you end your microwave show? You still have an audience.A: I do appreciate you guys who stick around. That's why I made these two bonus videos instead of just ending it with the channel eulogy. But we have to look at the logistics of running a microwave show. It's expensive. It's not like most videos where the only expenses are the recording equipment. Also, I'm caught between a rock and a hard place. I'm expected to have production values befitting a channel with 14K subscribers while getting views befitting a channel with 14 subscribers. So I lose money every episode.Q: Is there any way I can convince you to come back?A: Sorry, but no. For years I said if you guys didn't start watching again, I'd have to end the show due to the show becoming a money drain. Nobody listened, and then when I actually end the show, people who hadn't watched in years were suddenly begging me to reconsider.Q: Will you microwave (suggested item)?A: No. In the past I would have considered it, but my show's done.Q: Can I start my own microwave show?A: Sure but please take proper precuations. I don't want anyone getting hurt. I'm okay with you copying me, you can copy me and calling yourself General Microwave or Admiral Microwave or something like that, you can even call your show" Microwave You" or "Microwaved By Me" and copy my terminology and catchphrases if you want. I draw the line at reuploading my videos and claiming you made them. And please don't use my icon as your icon. There's copying and then there's stealing. Don't do the latter.Q: Are you going to keep your videos up at least?A: Yes! Of course! I know some when they quit YouTube wipe their channel clean. I don't do that. Everything stays up. I will even sign on once now and then to answer comments and post a community tab post.Q: How did you decide what to microwave?A: I researched the item to see if it'd be cool, or if an item was requested a lot I do it, even if I don't think it'll be at all interesting.Q: Why did you stop posting non-microwave content?A: My non-microwave videos almost always got lov views, a lot of dislikes, a lot of unsubbers, and a lot of "just stick to microwaving" comments. I got tired of this and began posting my non-microwave stuff elsewhere.Q: Can you list every microwave you ever used on the sow?A: Sure! It's in the credits! I call Renee a "Gold Wave" but should be "Gold Star". Also, notice not every microwave is named, but many of them are.Q: Is there even a teeny tiny chance you'll come back for your 20th year anniversary? Maybe 25th? 50th? 100th?A: 20th, no. 25th and 50th, probably not. 100th, I'll be dead.Q: Are you going to hand the reins over to a new Captain Microwave, who can continue running your channel, picking up where you left off?A: No, absolutely not! Anyone claiming to be me, the new me, or my backup account is a phony, a fraud, and a liar.With that said, thank you all so much for sticking around for however long you did. Whether you began watching in 2012 when I started, during my golden age of 2013-2014 when most of my best experiments were filmed, during my peak in 2015-2016 when my channel was at its most popular, during my "stagnation" period in 2017-2018 when things began to go sour but I was still fairly popular, during my channel's later years in 2019-2020, when views began to dry up and I ended the show, or in 2021-2022, after the show ended, I'm incredibly thankful to have you along for the journey. Words can't express how much I appreciate each and every one of you. If I could do it all over again, I would, but YouTube's a much different place now. Thank you, goodnight, and goodbye.Music used in this video:Egmont Overture Finale by Kevin MacLeodLink: incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3701-egmont-overture-finaleLicense: filmmusic.io/standard-license#microwave #science #experiment #seriesfinale #microwaving
Microwave Me Turns Nine Years Old! MicrowaveMeShow 2021-10-24 | Experiment #513: Supergiant DNA Double Helix Light Bulb(1 of 2 "After The Show" Anniversary Specials)You've seen me microwave giant light bulbs before, in fact, microwaving a light bulb is one of my staple experiments, especially microwaving a giant light bulb. Well, this isn't just a giant light bulb, this is a supergiant light bulb! It puts the high pressure sodium and metal halide light bulbs to shame with its sheer size! In fact, this is the second biggest light bulb I ever microwaved! The first being the so-called megabulb back in the beginning of my show for episode 200 which also became my longest microwave episode. And this is not that much smaller than that megabulb. So far this makes two supergiant light bulbs that I've microwaved in addition to countless giant light bulbs. I'm hoping that I made the right decision to do two extra episodes of Microwave Me, two after-the-show specials. I'm doing this for you even though 99% of you probably don't care, maybe 100% of you, but I assume some of you miss my microwave show since after I ended it in December of last year I've been hearing "please bring back Microwave Me" nonstop. Well, I did it, at least for two episodes, anyway, so you'd better show your appreciation! I'm a realist, I know this is going to lose me money and only net like 100-300 views, but I'd made this promise back in January, and I decided it wasn't fair to you to go back on it because of issues with censorship trolls and the fact that the 30 of you who wanted Microwave Me to come back are literally the only ones. I do hope to hear from you and I hope you like this episode. It's probably one of my cooler light bulb experiments. It had everything, plasma, caught fire, it even kind of exploded at one point. This and next year's special constitute an unofficial "Season 20" of Microwave Me. For this episode, I started out with a Prcotor-Silex microwave I named Zoe, since it's one of the last names in the dictionary, and did the actual microwaving with a Hamilton Beach microwave named Zoey, which comes even later in the alphabet, to signify the very end.#science #microwave #microwaving #donottrythisathome #microwaved #physics #chemistry #experiment #microwavingalightbulb #anniversary #microwaveshow #microwaveexperiment #lightbulb #MicrowaveMe #MicrowaveMeShow #CaptainMicrowave #scienceexperiment
The Death Of A YouTube Channel - How I Gained And Lost A Small Following Making Microwave Videos MicrowaveMeShow 2021-01-13 | I was originally going to call this "Microwave Me: Eulogy" but went with this.I was sick when I recorded this, so that's why I sound very hoarse towards the end. I announced last month that due to a nearly nonexistent fanbase, I was ending Microwave Me. We all know that once a YouTube channel has its day, it's all downhill from there and the channel never will recover. You get one shot to grow a channel, once the growth ends and your fanbase starts to evaporate, you can only delay the inevitable. This video talks about the rise and decline of my channel. I had temporary setbacks during the uphill part in 2012-2014 and temporary brief periods of recovery in 2017-2020, but trends don't lie. I had tons of fun over the years doing Microwave Me, I don't regret doing this show one bit. Are there some things I would have done different? Sure. But I think my channel's fate was sealed before I even posted my first video. With that said, I've made so many amazing friends over the years, I've also made some memorable enemies (and many not-so memorable trolls). I had fun making destruction videos for all of you, but eventually I became the "sick man of the YouTube destruction community" and no matter how hard I tried to right the ship, it was time for Captain Microwave to retire, and so with that I am officially retired from being your captain. It was a nice run, but all good things must come to an end. But it's not entirely over, I will come back on the 24th of October every year to post a microwaving anniversary special.R.I.P. MicrowaveMeShow – October 24, 2012 — January 13, 2021#MicrowaveMeShow #endofanera #seriesfinaleEDIT: Change of plans. The trolls won't let me alone, they're still false-flagging videos. No anniversary specials. This will be my last MicrowaveMeShow video ever. It's over forever. When this goes down again, I'm not going to fight to get it back.
Every Microwave Me Christmas Special Ever MicrowaveMeShow 2020-12-24 | I originally wanted to give you a Christmas special but that's not happening this year, so I decided instead to give you EVERY CHRISTMAS SPECIAL I'VE EVER DONE! This, my final clip show, features every holiday-themed item I'd done a microwaving experiment with. The first one I did that could sort of be Christmas-themed is microwaving chestnuts, but it was more meant as one of my fall experiments. Although the chestnuts blowing up was pretty funny. This microwave clip show starts with the boring hot chocolate episode and then skips to me microwaving Christmas lights (technically not a Christmas special as it was done in February) then it skips to the 2013 season where I did a majority of the Christmas experiments. After that, I'd do maybe two or three new ones every year. The last one I chose was kind of stretching it but I figured it was close enough. I figured since I haven't given you a clip show in ages I'd give you a Christmas clip show. I couldn't give you a season 19 clip show because I'd microwaved so few items, maybe a season 18 and 19 clip show featuring a decent list of microwaving items whereas season 19 had only one cool microwave experiment, that banana with magnesium. If you're unaware, the microwave show has ended. I posted the last episode earlier in this month. Don't bother asking me to come back, I've been warning you for the past few years that if you don't start watching, I'll have to quit, and most of you didn't heed my warning. So here we are. With that said, I hope you all enjoy the memories. I may no longer want to make new episodes but I still do like to remember doing them, I have so many great memories, including these particular experiments. I hope you have a merry Christmas and stay tuned for the video explaining my decision and the logistics behind the why.#Christmas #microwave #experiment #science #microwaving #microwaved #holidays #winter
Microwave Me: Hourglass MicrowaveMeShow 2020-12-07 | Experiment #512: Hourglass(Series Finale)Something I've tried to microwave many times before is an hourglass, back in season 5, I bought two hourglasses to microwave, knowing that they can glow brilliantly based on the episode that dOvetastic posted long ago (sadly his channel isn't around anymore). I decided for the season 19 finale, and likely series finale, I'd microwave an hourglass and post it regardless of whatever will happen. I won't give away any spoilers, but I'll say this is a fitting end to this show, which ended the way it started, almost working like a bell curve with 2016 being the show's peak. So it's only fitting that it ends exactly the same way it began. This may be the series finale but it's not the last video that I'm posting on this channel. Not even close. In fact, I've got upcoming later in December a Christmas montage, and next year an explanation for everything that caused me to make my decision, and of course there'll be some anniversary specials. I plan on doing one anniversary special a year and bonus episodes when someone is throwing out a microwave.#microwaving #science #experiment #nostalgia #seriesfinale
Microwave Me: Every Season Debut And Finale Ever MicrowaveMeShow 2020-11-24 | I'm not sure if you're aware of the announcement that this show's days are numbered, most of you don't watch anymore, and to be frank, it doesn't pay to make videos for an audience not interested in watching. You've moved on to other things and so should I. But I'm not deleting everything. I figured that I'd do a few tributes. This one is every season debut and finale ever. Notice that some of each season's best experiments were not the finale or debut, in fact in many cases the finale or debut was NOT the best episode that season but one in the middle. I will be filming a season 19 finale which will serve as a series finale. I don't think I'll be getting a show microwave for it. In fact, it'd be kind of fitting if the show ended how it began, with a lame, uneventful experiment.Music used in this videoLost Frontier by Kevin MacLeodLink: incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/4004-lost-frontierLicense: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0If this is how you found out that Microwave Me is ending, well, sorry to be the bearer of bad news.#microwave #experiment #microwaving #science #microwaved #dangerous #explosion
Microwave Me: Mexican Candy MicrowaveMeShow 2020-11-06 | Experiment #511: Duvalin Pudding CandyAfter my last video being really unpopular with what's left of my audience, I decided to make a new microwave episode as an apology. It's not much of a microwave episode though. Nothing happens, the lid breaches, no pop, no sparks, it was pretty boring. Still, I had this candy I got last year that I found a few I didn't eat and so I decided might as well microwave one of them. I'll be likely getting another microwave at some point in the future as I want to end season 19 before the end of the year. I don't even know if there will be a 20th season, but the way things are looking I kinda doubt it. Although new traffic does come every time I upload a new video so we've yet to see if I do or not.
Experiencing Interruptions? Find Out Why! MicrowaveMeShow 2020-11-02 | Knock-knockWho's there?The interrupting cow.The int-MOO!!!!!!==============================================================================What? Has quarantine finally caused Captain Microwave to flip his lid? No. I've been insane long before making shit like this. I got this idea after getting the old version many times with the obtrusive blue error box. The new one isn't as bad because it goes away after a few seconds. The old one seemed like it was what was interrupting your video because it'd work fine afterwards. So I nicknamed it "the interrupting cow error message" or "the cow" for short. When "experiencing interruptions? Find out why" pops up I call it getting "the cow". Like if a video runs slow I might ask if you got "the cow". And clicking the button leads to something I call a "couch potato graph". I nicknamed it a couch potato graph because it looks like it's measuring two slow runners who run at equal speeds, one sometimes slightly overtaking the other and also sometimes lagging behind the other but ultimately about the same, like if you and your mom were couch potatoes you might label it "me and Mom run at equal speeds" to show what you're measuring. I set it to the N-Spade music from Super Mario Bros 3 because I found that the most fitting for this. I just hate these stupid "interrupting cow" error messages is all.#experiencinginterruptionsfindoutwhy #interruptingcow #couchpotatograph #moo #knockknockjoke #runningspeeds #mooingcow #moomoo
Top 8 Things You Should NEVER Microwave MicrowaveMeShow 2020-10-24 | Microwave me turns eight years old! To celebrate, I'm doing a clip show of the best microwaving experiments. I was hoping I'd be celebrating this by microwaving something cool but the reality of 2020 is that I may not even get to finish this season this year. My best anniversary special was in 2015 but hopefully you like this anniversary special as well. I do plan on finishing up season 19 eventually but hopefully you like the little clip show. I gave it a kind of Buzzfeed or Watch Mojo title to hopefully draw in new visitors so that when my show resumes normal operations I'll potentially have some new fans! I didn't include any light bulbs because as cool as light bulbs are, they don't quite fall under top moments (except that weird neon bulb I did once for Halloween).Microwaving Gasolineyoutube.com/watch?v=rGe0OkIeliQMicrowaving Fireworksyoutube.com/watch?v=NxK6b5u54kUMicrowaving A Traffic Lightyoutube.com/watch?v=Lx4PJnTbdSIMicrowaving Champagneyoutube.com/watch?v=5Z3ZFES_JDoMicrowaving A Flare Gunyoutube.com/watch?v=Lw1KDkIY5t0Microwaving A Microwaveyoutube.com/watch?v=AIjHi6WB01sMicrowaving A TV Remoteyoutube.com/watch?v=CCvaHfPRFPoMicrowaving A Toasteryoutube.com/watch?v=tKwS3PeRfFQMicrowaving A Lava Lampyoutube.com/watch?v=suPhiHmCjRoHonorable mentions: Road flare, frog firework, spray paint, spray butter, giant beer, birthday candle, scarecrow, Elmo, Minions, Nutcracker#microwave #experiment #microwaving #anniversary #microwaved #science #destruction #explosion #microwavemeshow #metal #dangerous #donottrythisathome
YouTube Comments Sort By Newest First Not Working MicrowaveMeShow 2020-10-09 | I suspect there's some kind of "official" reason for it like when they neutered their search engine so you couldn't search by new for about a month. I suspect YouTube will come up with some kind of BS "official" reason within the next few days and won't give it back until enough people are pissed off that they start cancelling premium en masse. It hurts us as creators because it makes it harder to find certain comments only available under "newest first" and they could end up getting overlooked because they so happened to use a wrong combination of words or wanted to share a link. I've wanted to make a new video for months and it sucks that most of the videos I've made lately have been bitching about YouTube. I promise to make REAL videos soon.#YouTubeComments #SortByNewestFirst #NotWorking
Microwave Me: Victory V Lozenges MicrowaveMeShow 2020-04-07 | Experiment #510: Victory V LozengesThis is my quarantine edition of Microwave Me. I was going to get a brand new microwave, but I haven't done much lately with this channel. I decided to microwave a little bit of this British candy I bought. It's pretty good! Tastes a bit like a milder version of Sen-Sen (which I also microwaved back in 2013). Well, on the plus side, I have more time off to film these. Bad news is that I have to conserve a lot more useful stuff since trips to the grocery store are now limited. So this may be the only microwaving video that I post during the coronavirus outbreak. Yes, somehow COVID-19 made Microwave Me even in a worse situation than it was already in. I'll try to find more microwaving stuff during these downtimes. It's tough because I want to bring new microwave videos to you, but so much less money is coming in and I may have to make some really crappy videos just to supplement my income. In other words, I'll have to sell out if this continues. I'll still try to make them enjoyable though. If you're interested in seeing more videos, please let me know.#coronavirus #COVID19 #quarantine #microwaving #microwaved #microwave #science
New YouTube Comment Censorship? Or Just An Unfortunate Glitch? You Decide. MicrowaveMeShow 2020-03-11 | Over the past few days I've noticed that suddenly some comments have been inaccessible on any and all videos, including my own. Sometimes my own replies on my own channel are inaccessible! Used to be if the algorithm hated your comment it'd just display "hide all [number] comments" instead of "view all [number] comments" but if you click it says view all comments, now if it initially says hide all comments, clicking on it won't do you a lick of good. YouTube has apparently upped their censorship game. A sneaky move that nobody noticed as far as I know since nobody else is talking about this now. I figured I should so that you can be aware of it.These kinds of tactics are nothing new. YouTube likes to use these sorts of insidious tactics to silence random people they don't like with an algorithm. YouTube wants to get rid of the comment section to free up space to make more advertiser money, they've been doing it for years. When things like this are noticed by enough people and enough people are pissed off, they walk it back and claim it's a glitch. A lot of the changes have stuck, like removing comment sections on videos containing minors or anything they decide is a "kids video" (deliberate overzealous compliance of COPPA). By 2022, this will be a crappy Hulu clone. YouTube only cares about short term gains.#YouTube #censorship #algorithm #Orwellian #comments
Microwave Me: Grape Plasma In Water MicrowaveMeShow 2020-02-21 | Experiment #509: Grapes In WaterWhat's really to say about this experiment? I thought microwaving sliced grapes sitting in a thin layer of water could get them to spark and boil the water a bit. The one grape sparked a little bit but the water never boiled. It was another dud experiment. Sorry for the lack of new microwaving videos. I'll try to do better in the future. The problem is lack of time to bother with a new microwave. I've also microwaved just about everything by this point and it's hard to think up material for new episodes. But I'm keeping this channel somewhat alive because I do have a tiny audience remaining. But I can't budget a channel for 13K subscribers that gets the views a channel with 130 subscribers would get, I have bills to pay. Views do matter. Views = $ = budget = potential for new microwave episodes being cool. But I will get a new microwave to do these kinds of experiments in this spring or summer.#microwave #microwaving #plasma #grape #microwaved #grapeplasma #fire #science
Microwave Me Slow Motion Christmas Special - Santa Claus And Snow Globe MicrowaveMeShow 2019-12-25 | Slow Motion Episode #15: Santa Claus + Snow Globe(Series Finale)Merry Christmas everyone! Enjoy my slow-mortion series finale, TWO for the PRICE OF ONE. Wanna see Santa Claus meet his demise and a snow globe get blown to kingdom come? This is video for you. The second one is hard to see which is why I cut out everything but the start and the giant explosion. This was a truly awesome pair of episodes that I did.ATTENTION: Contrary to what I accidentally led some to believe earlier, I am NOT cancelling this channel, just the slow motion series. When people aren't commenting, especially with 13,500 subscribers, it's not worth it. The ones who tell me "be grateful for the few viewers that you have left" don't seem to understand that it's different having over 10K subscribers and barely getting views after once getting thousands of views per video and having barely any subscribers. People makes assumptions when there's a big subscribers to viewers discrepancy plus there's impossible expectations. I'm expected to budget my channel for 13,500 subscribers despite the fact that I'm getting so few views I'd be losing thousands of dollars per year. This channel is very expensive to operate and when I was getting thousands of views per video it more than covered the cost. That has changed. To further clarify, Microwave Me is NOT ending, but it's entirely possible that I may not continue past 2020 if things don't change. It's up to YOU if my series continues. If you don't have any interest in watching, I have nothing to continue for. I'm addressing all 13,400 of you ghost subscribers. Either unsubscribe or start watching.
Jack OLantern In A Microwave In Slow Motion - SURPRISING RESULTS MicrowaveMeShow 2019-12-22 | Slow Motion Episode #14: Jack O'Lantern + Ping Pong BallsThis is the Halloween episode. Microwaving a Jack O'Lantern was cool and it's even cooler in slow motion. It looks like a huge giant Halloween pumpkin spitting out magic everywhere. This is the penultimate slow motion episode. I've got one more left and I'm cancelling the series. You're clearly not interested, you don't care enough to comment, these get few likes and views, and I'm ending this experimental series with 15 episodes. 2020 will almost certainly be the last year I upload new videos to this channel outside of anniversary stuff unless a miracle happens.#NewCommentPolicy #UseItOrLoseIt #NextToLastEpisode
Giant Light Bulb In A Microwave EXPLODES In Slow Motion - BIG EXPLOSION MicrowaveMeShow 2019-12-21 | Disabled comments because NOBODY out of 13,500 of you bothered commenting after 13 hours. No point in leaving a comment section open where nobody out of 13K wants to comment. I used to get hundreds of comments per video. Now? Nothing. Congratulations, apathetic subscribers, you did what not even the nastiest trolls have ever been able to do, you got me to disable comments. New comment section policy - use it or lose it.Slow Motion Episode #13: Infrared Light BulbThis was one of my favorite light bulb episodes. It had a big boom to it. I decided to post the last of my slow motion microwaving episodes and just finish up season 19 in early 2020 before looking at how things are going and making a decision on whether or not to continue it beyond season 19.
Will It Microwave? - Blender In Slow Motion MicrowaveMeShow 2019-12-11 | Slow Motion Episode #12: BlenderWhat happens when you combine a legendary YouTube channel and a dead YouTube channel desperately trying to stay afloat? You get this video. It's the slow motion version of me microwaving a blender. I remember the original like it was yesterday. Summer of 2013, hard to believe six and a half years have passed since my original blender episode. Back then I was full of hope and foolish naivety as my dumb ass thought I was going to keep growing as long as I kept working hard to make better content. Ah well, at least I can keep making these episodes completely free as I'm just taking old episodes and giving them a nice little re-edit to show explosions in slow motion.
Fireworks In A Microwave - COLORFUL EXPLOSION In Slow Motion MicrowaveMeShow 2019-12-07 | Slow Motion Episode #11: FireworksThis is probably one of my favorite of the "early" episodes that I did. It had a fun, visually appealing result but it never put me in any kind of danger. I watered the fireworks to put them out. However, this is definitely a DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME episode. Hopefully you like the video of me microwaving fireworks. This is one of the first episodes I did featuring fireworks (the sparklers came before this), every year after this up through 2017 I did something fireworks themed that usually was bigger and more impressive than the year before. 2014 was probably the best since there were multiple awesome experiments such as the fireworks frog.#microwaving #fireworks #science #experiment #microwave #explosion #crazyscience #originalscience #newscience
Microwaving A Bottle Of Champagne In Slow Motion - Completely DESTROYS Microwave MicrowaveMeShow 2019-12-02 | Slow Motion Episode #10: Champagne BottleI say "don't try this at home" a lot, it goes double, no triple, for this particular experiment. Back in 2013, I microwaved a bottle of champagne and it completely blew apart the microwave. Luckily I was nowhere nearby so I was never in any real danger, but I knew it would be bad news. This was by far the loudest microwave experiment done to that point on the show and it would be one of the best "action" shots of a total annihilation where an explosion ripped apart the whole microwave. Nothing I had ever done had come close to that point. Other "action" shots would end up closing the microwave door, one had actually obliterated my camera and I had to borrow someone else's camera to finish filming an episode. But this explosion was the best I filmed.I have some goodies coming up, including some Christmas specials. However, if you want to see the Christmas special in time for Christmas, you need to watch the other ones, at least 1% of you watching.#champagne #microwave #explosion #science #microwaving #disaster #destruction #YouTubeScience #weirdpartofyoutube #microwaveexperiment
Sparklers In A Microwave In SLOW MOTION Create Satisfying Light Show MicrowaveMeShow 2019-11-26 | Slow Motion Episode #9: SparklersMicrowaving sparklers was my first fireworks in a microwave video so to speak, but since sparklers are pretty tame and more of a light show, I did the real thing in July. However, my season 5 episode of putting a set of sparklers in a microwave was a pretty cool one. I'm currently waiting on a new microwave to do new microwaving stuff but I've got plenty of videos coming up of stuff I'd microwaved that I'm showing in slow motion. In this case I wonder just how much a slow motion capture really added to it. The original definitely is one of my most underrated episodes. After this come the real exciting and fun ones. I'm actually debating on whether or not to show the next one planned to film today.or wait a few days. It's THAT good!
Flashlight EXPLODES In A Huge Fireball In A Microwave In Slow Motion MicrowaveMeShow 2019-11-22 | Slow Motion Episode #8: FlashlightWe're starting to get into the really good ones. I've got several others from season 5 that'll become HD slow motion remakes, but seasons 6-8 are total gold mines. Wait until you see the Christmas special. This is a three-in-one experiment as it was the first thing to be microwaved while it was running, then catch fire, then explode again. This was one of the best early microwave episodes from the early seasons of my show. I'm sure you can notice a huge jump between the early ones and the newer ones. But this is definitely one of my fun episodes. Looking forward to showing you season 6. And the Christmas special will be out of this world. Oooh yes!
Microwaving The Works Toilet Bowl Cleaner - MASSIVE EXPLOSION In Slow Motion MicrowaveMeShow 2019-11-17 | Slow Motion Episode #7: "The Works" Toilet Bowl CleanerThis one was such a short experiment that I didn't even have to edit the original experiment down at all. I just had to cut away the part in the beginning where I introduced the season and the items I planned to microwave, something I did during the early days of my channel. Here it's just the introduction, showing how I prepared it for microwaving, the microwaving, the slow motion, the aftermath, and that's it. Some of you are enjoying the bare bones approach but I know others miss the filler material. Don't worry, regular new episodes of Microwave Me are coming once again, these are just to give you something to tide you over. Once I get a new microwave these will be put on hold until I need new material. This one was a huge explosive experiment. Definitely don't recommend doing this at home. And it was a surprisingly LOUD microwave explosion too.
Microwaving CO2 Cartridges DESTROYS Microwave - Explosions In Slow Motion MicrowaveMeShow 2019-11-15 | Slow Motion Episode #6: CO2 CanistersMicrowaving an aerosol can produces a big explosion, how about a bunch of little metal canisters filled with CO2 under pressure until they explode? This was the finale of season 4 and was my first one to feature big explosions. After this, the microwave was good for two more experiments, mostly because the bottom was dented and the waveguide was shattered. This is nothing compared to the later microwave explosions I had but this was by far the best thing I'd microwaved by the end of season 4. Stay tuned for more re-edit slow motion episodes. I've got some impressive ones coming up.#microwave #explosion #co2 #metalinthemicrowave #science
Can Of Silly String EXPLODES In A Microwaving In Slow Motion MicrowaveMeShow 2019-11-13 | Slow Motion Episode #5: Can Of Silly StringMicrowaving an aerosol can is bad news, as you already saw. Now how bout microwaving an even bigger aerosol can? Well let's just say this microwave wasn't usable for another 30 episodes (where it made a cameo to microwave a CFL0. So what happens to a can of silly string that's microwaved? Ka-BOOM! That's what. That was my biggest ever explosion at the time, although as you're going to see later, much bigger, more powerful explosions were coming up. This was the first Microwave Me episode where I had a serious kaboom#metalinthemicrowave #microwavemetal #microwavingmetal #microwave #explosion #microwaving #microwaved #sillystring #microwaveexplosion #donttrythisathome
Microwave Me: Stroopwaffel MicrowaveMeShow 2019-11-08 | Experiment #507: StroopwaffelA stroopwaffel, Dutch for "syrup waffle" (stroop is a cognate with one version of strap, think "black strap molasses"), is a traditional Dutch snack where a mini-waffle is filled with caramel and syrup. A long time ago, back in season 5 of Microwave Me, someone asked me to microwave a stroopwaffel, I thought it'd be lame but actually it wasn't half bad considering what it was. The waffle boiled and it even smoked. I actually stopped it early because of how much it was boiling and smoking. To say it was a nightmare to get off of the plate is an understatement. For those who wanted to see a new Microwave Me episode, here you go! Hopefully it's just what the doctor ordered for those who have been yearning for a brand new episode of my microwave show. It might be awhile before I can get to finish off season 19 for real, hopefully this episode is a success. It turns out that microwaving a stroopwaffel is actually a surprising idea. If you're looking forward to seeing new stuff microwaved, I'll be microwaving new items as soon as I can, but in the mean time there's the HD remakes of microwaving things I did in seasons 4-5.#microwave #stroopwaffel #microwaving #syrup #interesting #oddlysatisfying #microwaved #science #burntstroopwaffel
Glass Beer Bottle EXPLODES In The Microwave In Slow Motion MicrowaveMeShow 2019-10-31 | Slow Motion Episode #4: Bottle Of BeerHappy Halloween! It's a new slow motion episode of Microwave Me. It's a HD re-edit of the beer bottle episode I did for St. Patrick's Day in March 2013, hard to believe that was almost seven years ago. Here I cut away a lot of the filler and added a slow motion explosion. Overall, this one is probably my shortest that I've done. There's little to say about this except beer bottle go boom. I've got a new microwaving video coming up soon so stay tuned for it. I'll be doing more slow motion microwaving re-edits and eventually I'll be showing cool new things microwaved. But for now watch a beer bottle explode in the microwave, next one will be an HD re-edit of the one of me microwaving silly string. It's gonna be awhile before we get to the flare-up ones, although maybe the spray paint can or possibly even the cell phone flare up is interesting, I know you want more so I'm going to hold off until we get to the good flare up ones.
Microwave Me Turns Seven Years Old! MicrowaveMeShow 2019-10-24 | Experiment #506: Birthday Cake with CandleIt's hard to believe that I've been making these videos for seven years so far. It's been a very up and down journey. Given my current situation and reduced budget, I had to resort to a birthday cake and candle. I was hoping to give you some plasma, but fittingly enough, it just fell over and extinguished itself. I'm at the point where I don't even care that my show has gone to hell in a handbasket. I almost expect things to go wrong. Even though the experiment sucked, at least I did a little clip show at the beginning so you can relive your old memories. If you're wondering what happened with 2018's, well during summer and fall 2018, false flaggers had temporarily killed my channel. Officially, this is my first season 19 episode since July. Hopefully by the end of the year I can finish up season 19. If not, I'll finish up early next year. In the mean time, enjoy yet another one of my microwave experiments go wrong and some slow motion older episode reedits of me microwaving things that explode. Microwave Me is currently in its 19th season and it'll go down as the longest spanning season, and so far only one thing microwaved was done so in a microwaving experiments microwave. If you want to see me do more microwaving episodes, support me. Watch and share this. Not necessarily this video but any of my microwave videos I made.
Aerosol Can EXPLODES In Slow Motion In A Microwave MicrowaveMeShow 2019-10-19 | Slow Motion Episode #3: Aerosol Can In A Bowl Of Cooking OilThis is the last of my Microwave Me video slo-mo re-edits recorded on potato cam and the last of these before I post whatever the 7 year anniversary episode is. I have no idea what I'm going to do yet, but here, watch the first major explosion on Microwave Me history, from back in February 2013. These aren't getting nearly as many views as I'd hoped, but they don't cost a dime so I'm not losing any money making these for the 1% of you that still care about me. I'll be doing new microwaving videos soon, probably microwaving the year 7 candle or something silly like that just to give you something to celebrate that this channel is about to reach its 7th birthday.#slowmotion #microwave #microwaving #microwaved #explosion #experiment #science
3 Things You Should NEVER Microwave - Eggs, Light Bulbs, Ping Pong Balls EXPLODE In Slow Motion MicrowaveMeShow 2019-10-14 | Slow Motion Episode #2: Multiple Experiments From Season 1In season 2 of Microwave Me, I was still using that state of the fart camera but improved the experiment quality. I decided to do all of the season 2 episodes featuring an awesome explosion into one to slow motion highlight them all. This will be my only time showing a series of microwaving experiments crammed crammed into single video format. I know these aren't what you subscribed for, but it's to tide you over until new "Microwave Me" episodes can come to be. I don't know how many of these I'll be doing but I know there's a lot of potential for good slow motion explosions from my earliest episodes, back when I was doing all the cool experiments but also before I really knew what I was doing. Still tons of explosions here.#microwave #microwaving #microwaved #experiment #slomo #slowmotion #donttrythisathome #eggsplosion #explosion #science #dangerous #scienceexperiment #demonstration
Chestnuts EXPLODING In A Microwave In Slow Motion MicrowaveMeShow 2019-10-08 | Slow Motion Episode #1: ChestnutsOkay, so that I'm at least giving you new content, I'm taking old episodes and doing a slow motion versions of the explosions or the scenes that are worth seeing in slow motion. People have asked me for years to have a slow motion instant replay. Now that I have the software for it, I can do this with old episodes. I also edited out a lot of the mindless banter that characterized a lot of my early episodes. But perhaps I should have kept it in because, you know, watch time. I did a poll and 3 to 1 you said you wanted this, so the results better match up with what actually happens. My chestnut episode from October 2012 is the first one to get the slow motion treatment. I have three slo-mo episodes edited so far, I may edit some more slow mo videos if the first three are a success. I'll also be doing new videos of me microwaving stuff eventually once I get a new microwave so that I can resume Microwave Me season 19. I miss doing new microwave episodes so I'll get back to it soonOriginal chestnuts episodeyoutube.com/watch?v=aI5U2E42vfI #microwave #microwaving #chestnuts #slomo #slowmo #slowmotion #instantreplay #science #explosion
YouTubes New Redesign Sucks Ass MicrowaveMeShow 2019-08-27 | So apparently YouTube's been rolling out a version of their homepage where everything is giant thumbnails, not organized, just a cluttered mess. Nothing recommended, no indication of what's from people you're subscribed to, no categories, just gigantic thumbnails. Apparently the idea is to make the desktop version mimic the mobile version. I have no idea why, the mobile version is overly basic with disproportionately large thumbnails because it's limited on what it can show on such a tiny screen, the desktop version is supposed to be better. What looks good on a 5" phone screen looks ridiculous on a 30" monitor. Is anyone else stuck with this dreadful redesign? Apparently GoogleTube is trying to make YouTube the video version of Instagram, not realizing that tons of desktop users use this for so many functions, and many things can only be done efficiently on a PC that can't be done on a phone. YouTube is only shooting themselves in the foot by trying to be a competitor to Instagram instead of staying in their niche. Whatever dumbass thought this was a good idea needs to be fired immediately. Same with the people who approved this.My theory is that Google is trying to kill YouTube and turn it into just a video hosting site like Hulu, look at how they're disabling the comments by force on more and more videos with their "official" reason being transparent lies, and they're making their site more and more unusable by the day. I think Google is still bitter that we didn't like Google+ and that they couldn't get use to use it by force so they're killing their actual social media site, YouTube, so they can bring back Google+ and force us to use it so we can comment again. Notice how they also temporarily killed search filters back in March. I think that was a test run and they plan on doing it more and more until the filters are gone and they can take away the search feature entirely. Like I said, they want it to be just a video hosting site with no social media or friendships formed on here.But some small YouTuber like me speaking out isn't going to make a different. We need big YouTubers to speak up about this.
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star played with microwave plasma - autotuned version MicrowaveMeShow 2019-08-21 | After someone commented in my original "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" with microwave plasma video that they hated it because they saw it as no different from autotune, I decided to make an autotune version for a side by side comparison. While it uses the same tools as sound sampling, its application is different. So, which version do you prefer? Let me know in the comments below.
Playing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star With Microwave Plasma MicrowaveMeShow 2019-08-20 | This is a very new and unique concept. Someone suggested that I do something like this awhile back and I figured I'd give it a go. For those of you who don't know, I'm also a musician (if you've seen my clip shows, you've heard my songs before). Also, it's been a tough past few months and I'm having a tough time finding a new used microwave to finish the 19th season of Microwave Me. Hopefully you enjoy this! What I did was used various clips of microwave plasma (which thankfully produced a similar frequency across the board) and sped it up to different pitches to simulate notes on an instrument. In this case, the humming electronic music was the instrument. If you want me to do other songs, let me know. This is an experimental concept and whether or not I continue depends on how this does. If it proves popular, I continue, if not, this is all I do. If you're just here to see me microwaving things, don't worry, I will have new microwaving videos some time soon, ideally within the next few weeks. But this kind of is a microwaving video of a sort.
Microwave Me: Banana With Magnesium In It MicrowaveMeShow 2019-07-06 | Experiment #505: Banana + Magnesium Ribbon(Rated G) You may remember the original banana experiment if you were one of my original subscribers. Other than a few mildly naughty jokes, it's an unremarkable episode. It's one of my original 11 episodes from when I started this on my music channel back in October 2012. Well, my channel's hit some very hard times over the past year (see the video in the end cards explaining more) but now I finally got a new microwave, so I figured why not start off with a cool version of one of my first experiments? It took forever for this to get going and truth be told, I didn't think it would work for awhile. But lo and behold, after about 15-20 minutes of sitting through just a banana cooking and turning into leather, the magnesium finally caught fire. It's been two years since I've had a microwave fire so I let it burn for awhile, but the microwave shut off, unfortunately that could mean the new microwave is fried already. If so, it's going to be a good wait until I can get a new microwave (and I need to know people care, getting less than 200 views on this video isn't going to convince me to spring for a new one) but I hope the microwave still works. I have a couple of really cool things planned. This was quite a microwaving experiment, please DO NOT replicate anything that you see in these videos yourself at home, or anywhere else for that matter. With that said, please share this video to let people know I am back. I've been doing this for years and I want to know that you still care enough to watch. I'm not in this for the views but the fact is that these are expensive to produce so trying to pretend that my channel isn't dead when it is will be a lot costlier than with a ranting or vlog style channel where the cost of video production is free, but the lesson from this experiment might apply to my channel, if I just keep going, persistence will pay off, like it did with this experiment. Hopefully it truly does in the long run.
Microwave Me: Ring Pop & Push Pop MicrowaveMeShow 2019-06-16 | Experiment #504: Ring Pop and Push Pop(Rated G) What? I'm microwaving CANDY?! I know this seems really lame considering my history of microwaving genuinely interesting things, but it's taking longer than I thought to find a used microwave and I don't want to make you wait. I promise that one way or another after this, episode 505 WILL feature a new microwave. Anyways, the actual episode itself was noneventful. I just did the ring pop in the wrapper, which was like microwaving a potato chip bag, then the candy itself melted when microwaved. I could have done this longer, I know but getting melted candy off of a microwave plate is a nightmare. Also feel free to request items for me to microwave. I've done over 500 episodes so finding a new thing to microwave is always a challenge, meaning I have to scrape the bottom of the barrel, and given the fact that I have no viewer base these days, I have no budget to microwave. This isn't just an ego or pride thing, this is an expensive channel to run, and when it was profitable that was fine, but if 99% of you aren't going to watch my videos, I won't have the money to do really cool things. If you're hoping to see better items, share my videos so people know I'm back. Comment on my videos. Support me. To those of you who've stuck around despite my channel hardships, I appreciate you a lot!
Microwave Me: Kinetic Sand MicrowaveMeShow 2019-06-09 | Experiment #503: Kinetic Sand(Rated G) I told you I'd be back! Since I don't have a new microwave yet, I decided to do something mildly interesting but unique and creative, and that is microwaving magic kinetic sand, also known as hydrophobic sand. The sand is impervious to water yet behaves like wet sand and only sticks to itself. I wondered what it'd look like in a microwave. And to be honest it was pretty uneventful, in fact the most exciting parts of the video are the before and after. But at the same time I had to do the experiment just to show the results. I will have more microwave videos coming in the future, good ones, and done in an outdoor microwave. This was just a little something to tide you over. If you have any ideas for stuff to microwave, let me know (but nothing too expensive or dangerous as I need to keep the new microwave I get alive for at least five episodes). This makes the first episode I've done since March and the first unique item I've done in almost two years. Huge step down from a traffic light or a flare gun, but the good still will be coming up fairly soon.
Microwave Me: Grapes Connected By Metal Wire MicrowaveMeShow 2019-03-09 | Experiment #502: Grapes + Metal Wire(Rated G) I've seen so many variations of microwaving a grape to get plasma, but for some reason nobody ever thought to connect the grapes through two ends of a piece of metal wire. The grapes lit up like a Christmas tree and the wire began to spark. This was a bit of a surprise as I thought the wire would light up more but it was the grapes that lit up brightly. It's nice to get some of that old pioneering Microwave Me spirit back as I took the grape plasma trick into uncharted territory. I promise I won't just be doing more grape videos from here on out, but until this summer I am going to have to take it easy with what I spend money on to microwave. I'm still struggling to get traffic back to my channel again so anything you can do to help get me back on the map again would be greatly appreciated. Also, don't subscribe to any fake channel that claims to be affiliated with me or my music channel, it's just me, Captain Microwave, my music channel, and the account I made in 2006. I have never, and will never hand the reins over to somebody else.
Microwave Me: Grape Plasma MicrowaveMeShow 2019-03-06 | Experiment #501: Grape Plasma Redux(Rated G) You've likely seen the grape plasma video I did back in 2012 where I microwaved a grape and it sparked a bit, well, after seeing a new video by Veritasium explaining new understanding in how the process works, I decided to try for myself with two grapes and even two butterflied grapes stacked on top of each other. As expected, plasma was produced, the second way outdid the grape experiment I originally did and the new one with two whole grapes. As it turns out, microwaving a grape to get plasma is always one that will yield big results. However, because of YouTube's crazy new guidelines, I have to tell you not to try anything I do at home.Veritasium video explaining the scienceyoutube.com/watch?v=wCrtk-pyP0IMy first microwaving a grape experiment from 2012youtube.com/watch?v=09gd5WTwYW8An explanation of why I disappeared for so longyoutube.com/watch?v=_cvW7bI8nIM
What Happened To My Channel? - An Explanation (False Flagging, Censorship, Drama) MicrowaveMeShow 2019-01-19 | 2018 was a rough year for me as a YouTuber and for my longtime viewers. After being on semi-hiatus in late 2017 and planning to come back in 2018, suddenly in late January my channel was targeted by false flagging, first the video of microwaving a Tide power pod, then other, even more innocuous videos including a video of me flushing shampoo down the toilet, microwaving a bar of soap, and many other harmless experiments. Before 2018, I had not one community guidelines strike despite how hard the trolls were false flagging me because they didn't like my videos. So I privated my videos to avoid losing my channel, which I temporarily did in May. However, I grew tired of being accused of deleting all of my videos and my own fans punishing me by spite-disliking my new videos because they weren't listening when I said it was to protect my channel. I decided if my own fans didn't care about me protecting my channel and just wanted microwave videos, I'd just unprivate everything and throw caution to the wind. Well to nobody's surprise my channel went down within 12 hours as the trolls who had been lying in wait for 8 months finally managed to censor me in August with their many bogus accounts.Somehow in late December I got my channel back, but it's a pyrrhic victory at best since my channel's dead. I know I'm going to get demonetized soon for falling below the 4000 watch hours per year, assuming that happens, my channel's budget will be reduced to mere pocket change. My videos are expensive to produce and YouTube doesn't care about the circumstances for why I have such low views. In fact they created the circumstances.And for those who have been following me, you know it's not like I've been flying under the radar all these years and finally got caught once I started getting some traffic. The peak of my popularity was 2015-2016 and I was actually in decline when I got targeted. Now I've gone from getting thousands of views per day to getting 100-200 a day, sometimes more on a good day.However, since March, I've been dealing with a persistent video thief and impostor creating fake Microwave Me accounts. Initially he called them MicrowaveMeShow2, then just MicrowaveMeShow and sometimes misspelled Micowavemeshow. He's also a crazed cyberstalker who's found all my e-mail addresses and social media and e-mails me, sends friend requests, sends me links of the stolen videos just to taunt me. I've tried reporting his channels various ways and YouTube does nothing unless it involves stolen videos, even then it can take up to two weeks to process. He goes around telling people he's my new account and links to my music channel claiming it's his.This is the fake Microwave Me account YouTube is protectingyoutube.com/channel/UC23WELRKdwhheNfLiBhvKcgHere's some of his other accounts. He's a fan of Logan Paul, Alex Jones, DaddyOFive, and Amos Yee. I'm not the first person he's targeted.youtube.com/channel/UCa9B_-Recfyb6Mc-_YjsINwyoutube.com/channel/UCx6ehTu12_22GqgIdW5eE2wyoutube.com/channel/UCI6YkEAcoz4XBWx5Gj-_Kjwyoutube.com/channel/UCBFpcvnIJ7Av1UZ02pIT8kQyoutube.com/channel/UCqkH9JY4rHcMVTHw5JFCjagHere's his fake Microwave Me Facebook pagefacebook.com/Micowavemeshow-fanpage-313497005874298Here's his fake Microwave Me Twitter accounttwitter.com/micowavemeshowAnd here's his VidLii account. I have never had a VidLii account.vidlii.com/user/Micrpwavemeshow2012 I explain in the video what calling cards to look for and how to identify him by two videos but in general, a fake should be easy to spot, yet I've gotten messages from people saying they subbed to "my" new account when it was just that punk impersonating me and stealing my videos.
Microwave Me: Lost Episode #9: Joyces Retirement MicrowaveMeShow 2018-12-28 | Lost Episode #9: Krypton Bulbs (Take One)(Rated PG) For those of you wondering why Joyce got a quick and unceremonious retirement, this is why. I filmed most of an episode but didn't even film the ending since there was nothing to film. The bulbs were BARELY even warm and the magnetron was starting to go, so it was time for a retirement. I decided to make this another "Lost Episode" because it is almost a full episode and it explains what happened to Joyce. I'd originally planned to do the Lysol can as the season finale but this showed why it's not gonna happen.
Microwave Me: Lost Episode #12: Pumpkin Spice Hand Soap MicrowaveMeShow 2018-12-28 | Lost Episode #12: Pumpkin Spice Hand Soap(Rated G) Uploaded in glorious potato-vision, because that's what it deserves. This would have been acceptable in my first year of making microwave videos, but now it's just not good enough. The idea was to find something that'd blow the door open. Next actual episode will be filmed and air likely sometime later this week.
Microwave Me: Lost Episode #13: Ring Caps MicrowaveMeShow 2018-12-28 | Lost Episode #13: Ring Caps(Rated G) I microwaved 384 cap gun caps with the intent of getting a good pop or two, but instead I get one of the worst episode I've ever done. I think these things are actually little drums and don't actually explode. 15 minutes should have done something, but no.
Microwave Me: Lost Episode #11: Italian Pop MicrowaveMeShow 2018-12-28 | Lost Episode #11: Italian Pop - Steam Explosion FAIL(Rated 12) So I had this little bottle of Italian pop and tried to blow it up. I figured that since it's a small bottle it'd have a good chance at giving me an awesome show. I couldn't have been more wrong! This fucking sucked! Not only that but the microwave door is too dirty to see anything inside. Even the light bulbs didn't help. If one good thing came out of this piece of shit episode, at least I got the microwave cleaner. I thought it'd blow up since it was so small, but glass containers are a 50/50 chance of an explosion. Earlier I aired failed episodes like the jar of pickles, the super protein shot, the small jar of salmon eggs (fishing bait), but now I don't do that anymore because I just don't see the purpose of it. But I'll still air the more notable fail episodes as a "lost episode". As always, I'd like to ask you to please NOT share this or any other lost episode with anyone, not even on your Facebook or Twitter, because if I start seeing comments from people I never invited, I'll just make this private and may stop airing new "lost episodes" altogether.
Microwave Me: Lost Episode #14 - Bottle Of Rubbing Alcohol MicrowaveMeShow 2018-12-28 | Lost Episode #14: Bottle Of Rubbing Alcohol(Rated G) I've uploaded bottles of liquid that failed to explode as main episodes, but no more! These will all be lost episodes from now on! For those of you who don't know, a "lost episode" is one that I filmed that isn't good enough to air as a main episode but is interesting enough in its own right to still post. The first of the "lost episodes" was the first egg video that you couldn't see explode. It was meant to air December 22, 2012 but never aired because it's too crappy of visibility, even by Season 1 standards. I ended up nuking some Jell-O instead (the fail takes ended up being the 2nd lost episode). Anyways, I don't share these with a lot of people so please don't share this on any of your social media. These are just bonus footage for my most loyal viewers of rejected episodes I did. Since this is so long, I uploaded it in 480p. Don't worry, you're not missing anything.
Where Have I Been? Why Are Most Of My Videos Gone? An Explanation MicrowaveMeShow 2018-08-16 | So, basically, Captain Microwave has been forced to walk the plank.
Kinetic Sand In A Blender - Will It Lose Its Kinetic Properties? MicrowaveMeShow 2018-08-13 | Episode 27: Kinetic Sand(Rated G) So what happens when you take a bunch of blue kinetic sand and stick it in a blender? You get blended kinetic sand. But is blending it a way to get it to do anything weird? Watch and find out. The results may not be what you expected, they may be what you expected, you may find them fascinating, or you may not, just give it a watch the whole way through. Kinetic sand is this weird type of sand made out of regular sand and polydimethylsiloxane which lets it retain the properties of wet sand without actually being wet. If you have other ideas for things I can blend, let me know in the comments below. I appreciate every single comment that I get.I know this is poorly edited compared to most of my videos and it even kind of has a feel like something I would have posted early on before I learned how to edit a video, but there's a reason for that. YouTube's ridiculous watch time requirements to stay monetized actually punish people for editing their videos. After all, more filler means more watch time. If I can get the average views and watch time back up to 2015-2017 levels, I can go back to editing videos.If you haven't already, please watch my blending crayons video, my drilling through a microwave video, my five year anniversary video, and my 8 hours of white noise video. The last one you can just let it play in the background as its sole purpose is to boost watch time.
Blending Crayons In A Blender - What Color Will They Make? MicrowaveMeShow 2018-07-28 | Episode 26: Crayons(Rated G) I know it's been ages since I made a blender video, but here is a new one. I took a bunch of crayons and stuffed them in a blender to see how well they'd blend and what color would result. I just got a weird blue-grey-black mess with some specks of green and orange. It looked like I blended a bunch of M&M's candy with a bunch of dirt. It's not my most exciting video, but given the way things have been with YouTube, I'm going to be playing it safe for the foreseeable future but trying to do as cool of stuff as I can with safe experiments. Hopefully you still thought this was fun to watch and felt like sticking around. No new microwave videos for now but you can watch my old microwave episodes, like the microwaving a bunch of crayons video. I'm going to do more blender videos now that I have blenders and I may even do some other science videos.Disclaimer: This video is for educational purposes only in order to demonstrate the effects of blending crayons. We at Microwave Me do not recommend blending your crayons. This video is not meant to serve as a DIY or "how to" for blending crayons.
Microwave Me: Lost Episode #10: Glowing Candle MicrowaveMeShow 2018-05-16 | EDIT: WHOOPS! Accidentally made this public! Was supposed to be a "lost episode" only shared with a select few on February 6, 2015.Lost Episode #10: Glowing Candle Plasma FAIL(Rated G) This was a complete and utter fail, I didn't even have the focus right on the camera, there was no need to even air this. I was hoping to get the candle glowing in the microwave and to have it glowing even brighter from all the plasma, but this was just a fail episode all around. The only reason I'm airing it at all is because my brother got me this for Christmas to microwave with high hopes that it'd be cool. In a bigger microwave it probably would work, but Elsa's only 600 watts so she's going to suck at doing these kinds of things. The only ones who will see this episode are my Facebook friends and the people on YouTube that I specifically choose to see this video. Which is more than I can say for a lot of lost episodes, but let's be honest, this one stunk. No getting around it. This would have been airable during my first couple seasons, but this far into my microwave show, no, just no.Even if it would have succeeded, it would have just been a filler episode since I already did the match plasma trick back in 2012.
Drilling Into A Microwave MicrowaveMeShow 2018-04-27 | Episode 45: Microwave(Drill This Series Finale)(Rated G) It's something many of you have wanted to see for such a long time and now I finally did it. I drilled through a microwave. I had Ellen (used in 2014-2015) on hand for this one. The microwave hasn't worked in years but I never got around to throwing it away for some reason. Decided to use for the "Drill This!" series finale. It put up a bit of a fight, the door wasn't as easy to drill through as it may have looked (due to slippery plastic) but I knew that wasn't enough. So I drilled through the top of it. That took some effort. I know it's been a LONG time since my last video of any kind, but a perfect storm of unfortunate events kept me from making new episodes. Read the pinned comment at the top of the video to find out more. While this is it for "Drill This", that doesn't mean this is it for my channel. And you won't have to wait 7 more months.
Microwave Me Turns Five Years Old! MicrowaveMeShow 2017-10-24 | Five Year Anniversary Special: Singing Birthday Candle + Cooking Oil + Alcohol(Rated G) It's not a microwave episode, but I wanted to give you something cool regardless. For the five year anniversary special, I lit a singing birthday candle and doused it in a mixture of alcohol and oil and decided to let it keep burning until there was nothing left of the candle except a bubbling blue liquid of molten plastic. I know it's been ages since I uploaded a video, but I've been really busy lately with a lot of stuff going on, not just life responsibilities but my music as well. The reason I haven't done a new microwave episode in awhile is a combination of the fact that ever since the garage came down, there's no place to conveniently film in the day and at night there's issues with visibility before and after. Also, it's not cheap to keep buying microwaves, even used microwaves, and stuff to microwave. Mainly it's that I've been losing money on the show because views are really down from where they were during 2015-2016 and a lot of my videos have been demonetized. I'm not in this for the money, but it's not worth it to pour a lot of money and time into regularly cranking out episodes when only 3% of my subscribers even watch them (when I get more views, it's usually from non-subscribers who rarely stick around for the next video). I'm not saying Microwave Me is done, not by a long shot, just that I need a break and time to figure out where to take it from here, the combination of very low views and mass-demonetization was what hurt the most. I have to think about my own expenses before I can focus full-time on a hobby like this again., Anyways, I wanted to post this to commemorate my channel being 5 years old and to let you know I haven't forgotten about you. It's so weird to think how I started out doing safe stuff, then quickly more and more unsafe and as it got less and less safe, the experiments got bigger and better. I went from hot pockets and marshmallows to ping pong balls and a lighter, to aerosol cans and beer bottles, to a champagne bottle and fireworks, to lava lamps and gasoline, to microwaving another microwave, to a giant beer bottle, to a traffic signal, and now burning a candle in a pit with a pint of flammable liquid. I wonder what kinds of crazy ideals I'll think up next, but I hope whatever they are, you'll be there to watch them. I make the videos not just for me but for you because I know you love them. So if you want to see more Microwave Me, please share this, let others know that I still make videos, keep watching me, and most of all, be patient, I have a lot on my plate right now that I'm dealing with, but as life happens to all of us, I'll try to when all is said and done get back to regularly making new microwave videos for you.
