Click here for Ed's original video: youtube.com/watch?v=3qIRr4K9Lb4
This video is a scientific test: does your microwave leak radiation? You just use 2 phones and your microwave. Put 1 phone into your microwave, close the door, and then use your 2nd phone to ring your 1st phone. The microwave should block the signal, so your "trapped" phone shouldn't ring. If it does ring, you've got a radiation leak, because if the phone signal can get in, the cooking radiation can get out as well. As a double-proof, you then open the microwave door, so the phone signal can pass freely. Now your phone in the microwave should ring!
Great experiment, Ed!
