Cell Phone Popcorn Hoax Revealed.

If it get too many microwaves a monster will burst out from it... true story.. saw it on Metacafe...

So you didn't have cable or what? You might as well put your cell phone up to your cats ass and let your friends listen to its ass pucker! Now thats a hoax! A sphincter says What?

my brother cause there is some F**king idiots posted more than 10 videos trying to make me belive in F**king stupid idea ...good joke and good explaination

.

microwave radiation isn't ionizing radiation, it isn't powerful enough to affect something chemically. on the electromagnetic spectrum it's just below infrared

this definitely isn't dangerous, if it was you wouldn't use the same device to prepare your meals.

You could have a coffee table made of metal that looks like wood and put a HOTPLATE under it.

you know.. microwaves..

doesn't that also fry the phone?

that's a lot of hassle for a prank .....hope you had lead pants !!

ill tell you a real thing.. you can call someone for free just by using 1800 mumdad

maybe they had a lighter under the table in the cell phone one instead of frying there phone and busting out in blisters all over

microwaves work by vibrating liquid in an object and since we are 97% water you can explode from doing this or at least get real bad blisters

Can you pop corn with a cell phone?

Bunk. Plenty of people were fooled into believing they could, though, after watching a video showing cell phones popping corn on the Internet ...

Truth is, the whole thing was a hoax. Cardo Systems, a wireless headset manufacturer, created and distributed the videos as a viral marketing campaign. But as pointed out in Slate, the effect of this clever (or insidious, depending on your point of view) advertisement was to tap into people's fears about cell-phone safety: If it can cook popcorn, so the idea goes, what might it be doing to our brains?

Still, we wonder: How'd they get the corn to pop in the video?

Here's how: Once the cell phones started ringing, the video makers dropped popped kernels into the center of the table, between the phones. They later digitally removed the unpopped kernels you see early in the video, thereby creating the illusion that your cell phone can double as a Jiffy Pop.


A microwave will cook you - It is true there is no loss of energy when reflected but Microwaves also travel in all directions. You are stupid to play with microwaves. I work in X-Ray - Same principle and same results.

...but isn,t this kinda risky...cancer,blindness and things...?

No one should try to duplicate the mad experiment where popcorn is made using a magnetron under a table.

Here are 7 good reasons NOT to do this:

1. Police officers have used radar guns to warm themselves in their cars in winter. Many of them now have testicular cancer.

2. Cell phones actually DO cause cancer. Studies FUNDED by cell phone companies show no connection. Other studies such as those done in Europe WITHOUT cell phone company funding have repeatedly shown a connection to CANCER. Our family lost a relative to cell phone cancer. The rapidly growing, agressive cancer tumor started EXACTLY WHERE THE ANTENNA WAS beside the head. Surgery didn't stop it. It turned into lethal lymphoma. Coincidence? I think not.

3. A cell phone has less than 1 watt of RF power. A magnetron from any microwave oven has a power output of 400 to 700 watts.

4. Exposure to microwave radiation at that power level even for a few seconds, can create cataracts in the eyes with possible permanent retinal damage. In other words, you could be completely blind, perhaps for life, in seconds. The idiot that removed the magnetron from the oven and wired it up to use under the table apparently seems to forget that magnetrons are used to COOK FOOD. A magnetron does not care whether it cooks chicken or people. Or their organs.

5. If the microwave beam that shoots up vertically through the table top hits a light fixture, a junction box inside a ceiling or even a metal object on the floor above or in an attic the RF energy will be reflected BACK DOWN into the room. And this reflection is quite efficient delivering almost 100% of the power back down into the room, similar to how light from a flashlight bounces off a mirror.

6. There are lethal voltages of about 2,500 volts in a microwave oven that power the magnetron with more than enough current to kill you. This is about the same voltage that was used in the electric chair.

7. The microwave energy is more than powerful enough to completely destroy cell phones or electronics near the exposed magnetron in seconds.

In short, this video should NEVER have been posted despite the ignorant comments that area shown below it.

explaination

Not really... Microwaves are around 2.4Ghz, which is no where near high enough frequency to cause any kind of cancerous radiation. All it could do to would possibly give someone a burn if they held their hand or whatever, in front of the output for a while. Even then they would just be burned, no possibility of cancer or other long lasting effects from it.

GREAT IDEA;) TAKE FIVE STARS

to whom posted fake vids about the connection btween popcorn and cell phone

No, it's not dangerous. Just don't hold you hand over top of the magnitron or the water in your hand will begin to heat up. Also the amount of power goes way down the further you are away from it.

and when you doing right it's not dangerous at all.

good one brother!!
but i hope you can still have kids after blasting your testicles with those unshielded microwaves!!!
