    You will end up riddled with cancer for sitting in front of your microwave. It says not to stand infront of your microwave when on

    Now here’s a quick riddle.. What really potentially dangerous thing did Alan Pan do here?

    Answer : He forgot to include the door interlock in his hack. Game on, microwave on.
    Food looks cooked so open door, microwave still on.
    Not instant death or anything but get microwaved..

    Microwaving water can also be dangerous because you could superheat it. Meaning that is would go over 100°C while remaining liquid and then flash evaporating when it’s disturbed.
