  • what is that???

  • It's balls of plasma that are caused by the sparking that occurs between the central point grounded on the aluminum plate and a piece of .7mm pencil lead that extends from the outer edge of the circular base to touch the tip of the aluminum central point.

  • WHAT CRAZY THING HAPPENING ARE YOU GUYS SCREAMING ABOUT?!

  • awesome!!!

  • a previously lighted match that has been just blown out will produce the same effect when microwaved. Place a glass jar over the match and you will protect your micro wave from burns and rebounding. According to another how to vid anyway. still not a smart thing to do. but cool effect. Science is awesome.

  • it cant explode, yes it can ruin your microwave

  • that can explode and really ruin your microwave dont ever do it!

  • it doesnt explode it blackens ur microwave insides. to do it is to remove the plate in the microwave and get some blu tack. put a lighted cocktail stick on the blue tack and stick it in the microwave. and then watch lighting

  • holy shit

    wouldnt that brake the microwave???

  • Yes :P

  • or 50Hz if your in europe ;)

  • Gotta love that 60Hz hum! How exactly do you do it with pencil lead?
