Don't worry, there's no pressure buildup. The plasma can get pretty hot though, and I heard "on the internets" that it can melt your the glass, so try it with cheap bowls only.
The plasma itself is an ionized gas. The fire is nothing more than a combusted helium particles. So using a microwaves ultrashort waves combined with extremely hot ions turns helium into ionized gas and that's the plasma. A natural phenomenon.
Thx=) Setup: 1. Take a bottle cap and make a small hole in it 2. Insert a match or other wood fiber into the hole (I used wood from incense sticks) 3. Attach something to a bowl so that it could be covered with another bowl so that the air can go inside [I used pens] 3. Place the cap with fibre into the lower bowl 4. [quick] light the fiber, cover the lower bowl with upper bowl, close microwave, start !
the sound is awesome

Can this be dangerous in some way?

It can melt the glass, but I am not aware of other dangers.

@darek4488 who cares about radiation???!!!! plasma is so coooooool!
i dont give a shit if the anti magnetic grid of my microwave oven is not supposed to hold that much enegetic magnetic field.
Cancer can be fun anyway! ^^
