Ah but that 100 degrees is at ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE. The boiling point of a liquid is defined as the temperature at which its vapour pressure equals atmospheric pressure. As the water is being contained in a small pressure vessel, it will continue to remain a liquid for well over 100 degrees, until the bottle can take no more. Upon rupture of the bottle, the atmospheric pressure is reduced, and the water flash boils to steam, which is most of the bang.

The best part is the couple frames at the end where it gives you that stereo image illusion

Excelent post, short, to the point. Highly satisfying.

Yes all I am saying it says the water temperature is at around 200C, it had at that point it become steam, which it can go even higher.
Boiling Point of Water: 100 C
Awesome. How long did it take to explode?

That microwave was thrown out by someone, would have gone straight to the landfill. The remains were sent to the recycling depot.
