It was an egg in a cup of water. The egg exploded, it blew the microwave door open and flung the mug out. Your roommates will also revoke your microwave privileges.

LOL! I've done this. XD

 

If you ever get your microwave privileges back, try putting a CD in there. Use a blank one or a disc that you are NEVER going to want to use again, and put in on for 3 seconds. It's really pretty. (It's also how the government destroys information stored on CDs.) ^^

Coolbeans! (But at this rate, you'll NEVER get them privileges back.) Oh golly. that must have been amusing. :)

 

I don't have a microwave, however, I do have a toaster oven, a oven, and a built in oven! :D

Haha! Did you really do that on accident? Or did you just want some entertainment?

 

PS marshmallows also explode in the microwave just so you know.

I tried putting a marshmallow peep in the microwave because I was told it would explode. It didn't. It just melted and left an awful smell. :/

Wanted to see if it was possible because I wanted egg salad and didn't want to wait for water to boil. The internet said it was dooable. Instructions were followed. Put it in for 5 minutes, This^^ happened after about 3

Haha, I do love egg salad but I seriously doubt that there is a way to hard boil an egg in a microwave, well maybe but definitely very risky based on the water content in the egg and the surface pressure of the egg shell as you determined.

My mother actually boiled an egg in the microwave without this happening. I think there is like a trick to it.

But yikes! That is a mess. Bummer about the microwave privileges. Invest in a toaster oven. :D

That is so awesome, I lol'd!! Maybe next time try boiling the water in the microwave, taking it out, and adding the egg? But then you have to let it sit for 15 mins, so may not fit your fast-boiled egg purposes. :D

How could you be so silly as to do this? You don't get a boiled egg from sticking it in the microwave. You get FRIED eggs.

 

On a serious note, I think it's probably safer if you try to microwave the water until it is very hot, then immediately stick the egg in and cover it.

I've seen a video of some pepole putting the most interesting things in a microwave. One was a ligthbulb, and the result was spectacular. It created lightning inside the lightbulb, it was an interesting effect!

Yikes! At least it provided some of us with a laugh. :P

There is a series of videos on youtube called, ""Is it a good idea to microwave this?" Its really funny. It made me think of it.

 

Don't listen to the internet, they're liers. :3
