[Imisstheoilers]

I dont think you are a god, more like an idiot. Fire is already plasma so of course you have plasma when you already had a lit match. You made nothing.

[MeTaLdUdE02]

@Imisstheoilers i thought fire was a gas

[Imisstheoilers]

@MeTaLdUdE02 Fire is the next form of matter above gas, known as plasma, which is why it is a glowing red and yellow color, or blue color. Havent you ever wondered what fire was? Why it is red but in a specific shape and moves around, its not a solid, liquid, or gas, its plasma. Plasma is described as basically a gas thats molecules have so much energy that they become another form of matter, like fire and lightning.

[MeTaLdUdE02]

@Imisstheoilers ahh, ok. everything i ever read never told me wether or not it was a gas or plasma.

[xSCFRxFPSPLASMA]

@Imisstheoilers actually fire is rapid movement of molecules that combines with oxygen to cause a bright burning sensation. plasma is an ionized gas, a gas into which sufficient energy is provided to free electrons from atoms or molecules and to allow both ions and electrons, to coexist. fire turns into plasma once its hot enough. but fire is just a chemical reaction between fuel and oxygen :)

[ahoop14]

@xSCFRxFPSPLASMA nuff nerdtalk bout nerd shit.

[Manhunter098]

@xSCFRxFPSPLASMA

A reaction between oxygen and a fuel source is called combustion, not a fire. Fire (flames) implies some degree of ionized gas present due to the high energy of the reaction.

[MrCRakerzTheLion]

that was awesome



[MasterXcon]

That was awesome but you an idiot for trying this :P good job :3

[OtakuNOVAkun]

It's ok, you're A GOD! right?

just fix it.

[bozar88]

I love the overloaded transformer's sound <3

[Andre232323232332323]

thats what i call a mini-supernova :D

[XXSTRIKINGEAGLEX]

240p we meet again

[Arceleus]

Haha, that was wicked but "IMMA GOD" really made this video for me

[MrPlaya2012]

what would happened without the glass oO

[soadhusky]

@MrPlaya2012 yeah its a god question, i also would like to know

[MisterBarnacus]

Is it ok to look at the plasma without special glasses or something?

[captainofpineapples]

@MisterBarnacus i suggest auto dimming welding googles

[saltydawgs]

you sound like a total idiot. please stop talking.

[ItZzDonno]

quick Quick!.....PLASMARR 0_0

[unnim]

Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sounded cool too.

[swirlingabyss]

PROTIP: Use borosilicate glass.

[da1452vinch]

Plasma vibrate atmosphere.

[FallowerofHank]

So thats how the Covenant made plasma weapons...

[Changbang2013]

light saber dude. in a microwave.

[DeadStarsShine]

Was that Nobunaga in the beginning saying, " I'M A GOD!"

[rangedat]

@DeadStarsShine Nope, it was charlie sheen.

[qwertzy121212]

I love doing this.

[Makos313]

For those of you who dont know, plasma is a state extremely high energy for matter. By taking the already considerable energy from the flame and bombarding it with with energy (via the microwave radiation) the matter gains enoigh energy to spontaneously go into that next stage. However, the energy is so great that it can easily shatter the glass container for the flame, and so should not be tried at home.

[redbook5544332211]

you should get checked for cancer

[L0rdDeLtA]

IM A GOD!!!!

[ParaglidingManiac]

How many watts for 10-15 seconds of plasma do I set?

[TheRandomness4us]

@ParaglidingManiac dependin on your microwave mine is 1200 watts and it took me 2 seconds

[ORIGAMIMANIAC1]

DATS SO AWESOME

[unglaying]

stupid man

[0polle]

why does it stand dont try this at home ween you do it...

[pkrunX]

press play, hit 5 over and over again for ultimate coolness when the plasma appears

and then 666666 for BAMBAMBAM xD

great video!!! thx man =)

[swdw973]

Should be titled, here's what happens when you're an idiot.

[DethklawExodus]

good idea for a plasma gun

[thedon420333]

lol dude you crack me up when you say "plasma" at :36

[acidfriend47]

So you pretty much lighted a match and covered it with a glass cup and as soon as you started heating it; it creates plasma?

[DarkstarNovembr]

can anyone from australia get this to work? ive tried 4 different microwaves, and only the 4th microwave made anything, it made a spark and that was it... could it not work in aust because of different amps and watts being used to power the microwave?

[juumdd]

that's beautiful... was the sound thing during the glow coming from the plasma or sound effects?

[ROFLMAORYSST]

@juumdd it comes from the plasma

[mikeymul987]

oh shit! did the glass blow up?

[WinkieSpencer]

You can also get cancer from the sun, ya noooobs. Let the guy have his fun...

[briggsiee96]

plasma :)

[MrSouthphillyitalian]

I just ate pizza

[St9ler]

IM A GOD

[TRAGEDY623]

you can get cancer from this but it is highly unlikely due to the fact that it is not strong enough and yes opening the microwave was the cause to the shattering of the glass

[EdwardLaiPY]

WAH..this vid is> doing to>BOOM!!

[mario2980]

lol don't try this at home and you try this at home XD

[favorunmerited]

So, was the glass shattering related or unrelated to the fact that you opened the microwave?

[gamehero77]

Microwave plasma is above 1000 degrees C

super cool that and you've got glass in your eye.

[sage296]

woah

[MrNinjaMittens]

And now you have cancer...

[thereandback21]

Benzo41190 is right we watched a video in my science class and my teacher told us what happens

[WoWNapom]

Silly God.. Why are you posting on Youtube?

[eleousa93]

VERY COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

[dsavetark]

wow that was quite scary..but i like when the plasam thing gets formed!

[Donkumbia94]

kamehamehaaaaa!!!

[Probewitch]

OMG. I haven't laughed so much in years!

[iman10000]

I don't know why people can't get it... The glass exploded because it was super heated from one end and the stresses shattered it. The same can be done by sticking a glass in the freezer and pouring boiling water into it slowly :)

[Matej1the1dinosaur22]

@iman10000 write IS IT A GOOD IDEA TO MICROWAVE THIS. and go to episode 11

[DEATHNOTE0x0]

@iman10000 but it was only in there for under 30 secs! pluss i used to make hot coco when i was 7 when i had a microwave! so its not for the heat!

[iman10000]

@DEATHNOTE0x0

Many things heat at different rates in a microwave. For instance, sparks emitted within seconds of putting tinfoil in can be hundreds or even thousands of degrees.

[DEATHNOTE0x0]

@iman10000 when i was 6 i puta hot sauce packet in the microwave *when i had one* and i was so funny i screamd cause the sparks went everywere!

[TheRandomness4us]

@iman10000

a single spark its actually 50c enough to burn you

[simo1nn]

just say the spontaneous combustion of the thermally reacted glass to make ppl confused :P

[RSRebornDeath]

@iman10000 Or heating it a ton and then pouring ice-cold water on it. :)

[opiates]

You just made a mini star.

[MrTimy72]

it didnt explode it just heated and cooled the glass to quick as plasma is up to 4000 degre ,try a pyrex glass

[MrTimy72]

it didnt explode it just heated and cooled the glass to quick as plasma is up to 4000 degre

[clrhilla]

lol!

[interestingname1]

its shows how bored people can really get

[sjjdiienno1]

that glass wanted you dead bro..i seent it

[TheLegendaryPieMan77]

We have the same microwave :0

[joardan222]

fucking lol

[FedeParkinson]

waow... Plasma :O

[F3ath3r3dS3rp3nt]

whoa O_o

[odellem]

dat waz cool



[minhapicacolossal]

Nice way to ruin a microwave. JACKASS...

[pivotlordlol]

I say 2 weeks before the united states makes this into a weapon

[k1011]

@pivotlordlol nonsense, they've always discouraged the innovator.

[D34Df007]

@pivotlordlol already have

[XxLevegencexX]

@pivotlordlol i say its been a year and nothing...

[supermario863]

well it cant be critized because it came before is it a good idea to microwave this

[maram799]

This is very dangerous ..

This is unacceptable behavior ..

You may put yourself at risk ..

[smacker55555]

thats fucked up dude

[PhilipsLS1300]

what the fucking hell was that red light?

[MrYeahdude69]

thats fucking insane thats one thing in life im planning on NOT doing

[Nave6W]

RADIATION!! hahaha :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

[coolcodytaylor]

dude you got lucky

[SigmaKidd]

@terribletoys "supposedly another from of matter" wth it IS a form matter

OBVIOUSLY its not going to be gas because a gas is a FORM of matter

Forms of matter just depend on how fast an object's atoms are vibrating

lol and actually yes....they have found many black holes

[zaBlanketHugger]

whats plasma...

[LoneStarr13]

Ionized gas.

[LoneStarr13]

@zaBlanketHugger Ionized gas.

[terribletoys]

plasma is supposedly the other form of matter. liquid, gas, solid and plasma. so the smart people say it ain't a gas at all... but what do they know. they still haven't found a black hole. lol also what is ecto-plasm? is that made of Plas-MA?

[volkerball34]

notice the light in the microwave goes out when the plasma takes form. this is just how powerful plasma is

[peppelionelmessi]

oh cazzo!!!

[dogman1090]

Exactally. That is what creates light. Electrons generated to their next electron level jump in then back to their normal position...releasing photons(light energy). that is the red you see.

[dogman1090]

Plasma is an ionized gas. Microwaves cannot ionize atoms. What microwaves do is speed up the kinetic charge of an atom, and what do you get...HOT,HOT,HOT!

What happened was the atoms were free radicals that needed to escape the glass.

[NAMkiller]

@dogman1090 free radicals are electrons

[matz29]

@NAMkiller nope, they are not. free Radical can be e.g. O-, Cl-

[luiscarlossoc]

OMG I JUST DID IT!!! awesome

[sokkaizcool]

Plas-MA

[mastax1234]

wow cool

[TheBaxter1994]

IM A GOD TO

[stripedconvict43]

I thought it was bad if you opened it right away? because of gasses

[deathweaver516]

It does not seem to be plasma? I think the match is a catalyst for the flame at the top of the glass (hot air rises). This explains the pause. The whole point of the glass is to capture the flame. The match started combustion of the oxygen in the glass and the microwave continues it being that there is enough energy for the microwave to keep it lite. If it where to be done for long enough it will go out . The glass broke because it could not take the heat of the flame.

[storyb23]

Awesome

[luiscarlossoc]

plasma is a very hot gas

[JarethGT]

@luiscarlossoc Plasma is not really a gas, its an entirely different type of matter. Its basically the next stage of matter, Solid, liquid, gas, plasma.

[fookyoujapan]

A flame generally does not travel far from it's source of combustion. You can look up more information on the web, this is actually pretty common knowledge now (I learnt about this in grade 10 science). Basically, the ions around the flame get 'supercharged' by the microwave and give off an intense energy.

[terribletoys]

@fookyoujapan u learnt about it?. that is some funny shit.. u sound smart, just had to rip on yer typing cause I am a spell checker and I'm bored..

[nathanielbruner]

@terribletoys check your own spelling.

[iman10000]

@deathweaver516

Ionized carbon from the smoke :)

[Jecagao]

what was that inside the glass?

[drulli6]

match

[azertyhntjorven]

first fire and then plasma

[borntoball15x]

two girls

[PrivatePanic]

plasma? this is not a plasma

[Choice777]

yes, it is.

[AlbertInSanAntonio]

very stupid

[ricardoucr]

Hello, i try to make this experiment first with matches but when i put over the glass the flame lasted for 2 or 3 seconds even with openings in the bottom, then i tried with a small candle very close to the bottom, with and without the glass in two different microwaves, but i get no results. Does someone know why it didnt work?

Thanks!

[extremeeXrement1]

it could be your placement in the microwave

[raydredX]

@ricardoucr try cutting a grape in half and put a glass over it

[rocco133]

@ricardoucr

die you remove that spinning plate? it absorbs a lot of the microwaves

[CoffeeKing777]

Don't even want to think about the RADATION

[Choice777]

is it just me or did the plasma cause a small explosion when it became unstable because it lost the energy source ? it seems like that to me..like it broke just when he shut it off.

[CoffeeKing777]

@Choice777 Wow, nice observation! Also, we both have 777 in our username :P

[n0nth3t0k3m0n]

how cute cactu and steve had a little nerd rage battle

[PeanutWarrior611]

so u put a match in some foil, lit the match, covered it, and then turned on the microwave? cooool :Þ 4*!

[timothyak47]

you have birds

[nikolain3n]

shit this has turned to a rocket scientist chat : O would be awsome if plasma could be used to weapons, like plasmarifles >: )

[themadscientest]

cool

[star11scream]

im not having popcorn anymore

[Ariel1Dominguez]

and now you have cancer.

[ANTOSIKgroup]

what is it , that you burns? is it just a normal candle?

[admanrocks03]

its a match in a glass

[marsvoltian]

Nice, it makes me think how dangerous it is to cook in a microwave

[mondaymorninbongtoke]

light some weed up under that shit and make some plasma dope thats how the aliens toke gets you up to lightspeed no joke

[eduboy999]

It's not plasma get it right ppl

[suzukir122]

You know, high arcing, and plasma occur in a fluorescent light when it burns out. I've seen it and it's very interesting.

[tuseroni]

i think the reason it exploded IS because you opened the door. it explodes the second you pressed the button, i think you created a pressure differential between the glass and the microwave when you opened the door causing it to explode (or it was because the microwave turned off breaking the magnetic hold created by the tin foil being excited by the microwaves.)

i would suggest experimenting to see which it is, try simply canceling and see if the same thing happens

[benzo41190]

I filmed it...I know for a fact that it exploded before I opened the door. I had my finger on the button and the split second I heard it explode I hit the button and backed off.

Watch the slow-mo.

[antmanmax1]

Yep your hand was on the button, but you didn't press down on it when it exploded.

[XxWearsMexX]

@benzo41190 well; also wen u opened it cooled so fast that it shattered.

[XSaberWarriorX]

have you tried a match in the microwave?, i have, its freakin cool!, this looks real

[edvhou812]

@tuseroni Blah, Blah, Blah, differential, blah, blah, blah, chronic masturbation, blah, blah, blah!

[rogahiznumba1]

@edvhou812 rofl

[5Halroo]

Very nice.

[freakin1random]

pyrex kids!

[zatarbatron]

cha-poo

[maoyenusi]

i like your voice when you say "PLASMAAA :D" haha lol

[Dagz666]

plasma is a gas based energy that acts like a liquid with conductive properties, the radation from the microwave reacts with the flame creating electricity on fire (plasma). Try it yourself but dont stop the microwave and see what happens

[flyboy21141]

nice.

[whatshisname200]

Wait was the match stuck in the aluminum foil?

[kleine666braut]

*loool*

i see a light O.o

it comes to mee wahhh xD

funny experiment *haha

[XxCarnageX1120]

What the bullfuckery is this?

[SexyMevy16]

turns out you can do this with your average house spiders lol convery those creepy 8-leg bastards into energy ^-^

[cactusman319]

I hate spiders as much as the next person. Actually more, (one of the biggest arachnophobes ever)

But I've gotta call you out on this... You don't convert mass to energy unless you decimate cities. Like Hiroshima and Nagasaki

[90210steve]

Um, have you ever seen a fire convert wood into light and heat? Converting mass to energy is how we get the vast majority of the energy we use every day.

[cactusman319]

On earth, converting mass into energy only happens a few ways. One of these ways is in a nuclear reactor, where we take neutrons and smash them and turn them into energy (e=mc^2)

The other way is atomic bombs. When you burn wood, you are simply causing a chemical reaction - matter is neither created nor destroyed.

[90210steve]

Of course it's not created or destroyed. It's *converted*, exactly as in the equation. Energy=mass, period. It's not limited to nuclear reactions, and energy is energy. The energy released as heat by a nuclear reaction is exactly the same as energy released as heat in a chemical reaction. One joule released by combustion requires the conversion of exactly the same mass as one joule released by a nuclear reaction. The only difference is that nuclear reactions convert the mass more efficiently.

[cactusman319]

The law of Conservation of Mass clearly states that, except in the case of special relativity, mass can neither be created or destroyed. Special relativity is modeled by the equation e=mc^2, and only applies when things are very very close the speed of light.

When burning, wood reacts with Oxygen, which is contained in air:

When burning, wood reacts with Oxygen, which is contained in air:

C6H12O6(wood) + 6 O2 = 6 CO2 + 6 H2O

Notice that the amount of C O and H are the same on both sides.

[90210steve]

SR is relevant to conservation of *matter*, but mass is always conserved *if* we're dealing with a closed system. We're not dealing with a closed system, and energy escapes as light and heat. The equation confirms that matter has been conserved, but says nothing about mass or energy.

You've said E=M twice. TANSTAAFL. If you understood what it means you'd see that energy comes from conversion of mass. The particles are conserved, but the 6 CO2 + 6 H2O have less mass than the C6H12O6 + 6 O2.

[cactusman319]

The proof that it is, in fact, a chemical reaction comes from the fact that matter is changing forms. It changes forms from the pure oxygen and hydro-carbon into a mixture of water and carbon dioxide. Also, things such as changes in color, emission of heat (or if it's endothermic, absorption of heat, and emission of light signal that there is in fact a chemical reaction occurring. Now, if this was under special relativity we would be losing either whole atoms or subatomic particles.
