The plasma video was the shit. I need to know exactly how they did that. The theory and a step by step tutorial how to do it.

 

[Emporius]

Wow, that plasma one was incredible

 

[Acepilotf14]

Hypothesis: If we put a candle inside a glass, containing the heat, and put it inside a microwave,Then we will contain the heat and create plasma.

Process: Get candle wick. Place in microwave, supported by something. Light. Put glass on top of it, covering it, but maintaining the flame. Start microwave.

...dude.

Is there anyway to do that plasma thing without causing an explosion when you turn the microwave off?

Yes. cut a grape in half, leaving only a tiny portion of the skin. Microwave. Watch the awesome plasma arcs. Avoid the toxic fumes.

Make sure you turn OFF the microwave before opening the door. I notice a lot of youtube vids where the person opens it while it's running, which usually turns it off too late, and the air coming in/going (not sure which) ends up breaking or blowing something.
