Microwave explosion

I put calcium carbide and water in a microwave, this reacts to create oxy-acetylene, then the foil creates the spark.

It might leak radiation, not sure really but the fuse always blows when I blow these up so there is not much risk.

awesome video...the magnetron should have quit when the door got blown off...more chance of shrapnel injury than microwave radiation exposure :)

now *make* the calcium carbide in the microwave by microwaving a mixture of chalk and table sugar until its black and hard.
