Cooking an Airbag Turns a Microwave Door Into a Missile

Despite an endless tilt of fascinating and destructive experiments you’re able to try , microwave oven should really only be used to fire up food . Notlightbulbs , nothighlighters , and decidedly not an airbag from a cable car . Unless you ’ve set about ahigh - swiftness television camera to tape the microwave ’s doorturning into a gamey - fastness missile .

gratefully , The Slo - Mo Guysdid , and filmed what happens when you microwave an airbag using their Phantom Flex 4 K high - amphetamine photographic camera at 2,500 frames per second . The results are , not surprisingly , fantastically destructive . The microwave oven is left pop and deformed from the plosion , while its door ends up clear on the other side of the backyard . Do we need to remind you that there are easily 1,000 good reasons not to try this at home ?
