Lesson Learned, Hopefully
If you read anything on the internet about using a microwave to do anything other than defrosting or heating your food, ignore it completely. Trust us; you don’t stick anything in the microwave that you wouldn’t put in your stomach. It’s not worth it to even give it a try since microwaves can be pretty destructive.
This person, who is a grown man, learned this lesson the hard way. He read on the internet (so it must be true!) that you can recharge your phone’s battery by popping it in the microwave. The results of their DIY experiment pretty much ended how any rational person would expect.
