Poor guy learned the hard way.
Microwaves are not to be fucked with. Microwaves are produced inside the oven by an electron tube called a magnetron. The microwaves are then reflected within the metal interior of the oven where they are absorbed by food.
When a magnetron bombards another magnetron with microwaves it produces a feedback loop that can result in an explosion. This phenomenon was first recorded in 1998, the same year that The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table.
The second I read 1998 I was like, there’s no fucking way and then bam!
Hey you’re a big phoney! You’re not the real hell in a cell guy!
u/shittymorph gone but not dead. Just still on Reddit presumably
Mom, I want shittymorph!
No, we have shittymorph at home already.
I’m here to shitpost, not to post facts, my b’y
your intent apparently warranted
Sure sounds like it. What kinda microwave fits in another microwave? Why would it explode? Snd the picture doesn’t fit.
Someone above mentioned that magnetron bombarded by another magnetron can cause a feedback loop thus causing the explosion. I am not exactly sure if that is scientifically correct but that could be one explanation for the explosion.
But yeah the rest of the story is probably just a meme story.
They also mentioned 1998 and Hell In A Cell. I’m thinking they were full of shit.
Can’t believe this shit still works in 2023.
Nice, It’s hard to seperate science from meme these days you know. Back in my day, people wouldn’t make such jokes but oh Wait I am still 23. Good times.
It’s all BS and I tried to Google that shit
I love spreading Misinformation online
Well there is no other kind right?
When you try to put a bag of holding into another bag of holding
This is not allowed?
Placing a bag of holding inside an extradimensional space created by a handy haversack, portable hole, or similar item instantly destroys both items and opens a gate to the Astral Plane. The gate originates where the one item was placed inside the other. Any creature within 10 feet of the gate is sucked through it to a random location on the Astral Plane. The gate then closes. The gate is one-way only and can’t be reopened.
Or search google on google
Their sacrifice will not be forgotten
Wait… That can happen? I gotta rethink my weekend plans…
The explosion destroyed both microwaves and created a portal to the astral plane.
Joke aside, the magtrometer can easily explode.
Jokes aside, the magnetron is just a vacuum tube surrounded by a big heatsink. It could implode but the vacuum volume is tiny and the metal inside and outside will prevent glass from flying everywhere, unlike a B/W CRT. There is also a transformer, HV capacitor, fan, a tray motor, a mechanical or electronic timer, lightbulb, high voltage diode and fuse, bimetallic contactors (thermal fuses), safety switches, interference filter and smooth start circuitry. None of this can really explode but will get hot in presence of microwaves, burning plastic and other materials, producing caustic smoke.

No, thst will not happen
That rascally Florida Man. Up to his usual hijinks.
Not gonna lie, this is something I’d probably try if I had the means to do it
Reminds me of The Microwave Show
THE MASKS! THEY DO NOTHING!

So he bought a microwave to microwave a microwave.
