Cheryl JWhat happens when ordinary and unordinary objects are placed in a microwave?

I'm sure your parents always told you not to put aluminium foil or any metal for that matter in the microwave. You probably always wondered what would happen if you did, but decided not to in case you caused some sort of explosion.
Thankfully now your curiosity will be satisfied as there are a number of idiots who put all kinds of objects in microwaves, turn on a camera then wait to see what happens.
Please don't try any of this at home, I don't want to be responsible for people hurting themselves through their own stupidity.
This clip has some great examples of what not to put in microwaves.
Did you ever want to put one of those annoying Furby things in the microwave just to shut it up? Well this is what would have happened if you did.
Cock a doodle doo BOOM!!!
Have you ever put soap in the microwave? If not you should it's pretty cool.... I mean don't ever do it cause it's naughty.
Tin foil, aluminium foil, ceramics decorated with metal, and products containing other metals can cause sparks when they are used in a microwave. Several microwave fires have been noted where Chinese takeout boxes with a metal handle are microwaved, and also where "homemade" microwave popcorn bags have been sealed using a metal staple, which is then heated and sets fire to the bag.
The last clip is the one you've been waiting for, metal in the microwave!
