Hello, and welcome to "Is It a Good Idea to Microwave This?" I'm your fill-in host for today, switching places with Jory Caron,
My name is Jonathan Paula.
This is my sidekick, well, normally it's Jory's sidekick,
Riley McIlwain.
It's kinda like a wife swap thing. I get to have him all for myself in this experiment.
Normally I'm behind the camera, so it's kinda fitting that today's experiment is this video camera.
Sent in by Alex Braun. And believe it or not, it actually can take video,
sub-cell phone quality, but check this out, I'll film myself talking to you right now.
So, uh, we are going to stick you in the microwave, and you're I'm sure you're not going to like it.
So, uh, we are going to stick you in the microwave.
All hands to the deck.
Nobody likes roasted nuts!
[Boom] All: Whoa, holy--
[Fire Extinguisher woosh]
Let's get out of here! Ventilation is key!
What are you doing?! Put that out!
Does it still work?
You're dumb.
The masks! They do nothing!
Stopping, stopping!
Should I get the fire extinguisher?
No!
Two point five!
[Fan blowing] [Door Close, fan stops]
[Saying title]
[Microwave beeps]
Let's go find out. Here at Jory Caron Laboratory 2 and a
its our 3rd concern.
And we also have this neat, big ol' f[beep]in' tinfoil shield.
To protect my nuts, Riley's nuts, and hopefully your nuts at home.
Because nobody likes roasted nuts.
Riley, what do you have there?
It's my new sidekick cam.
Oh yeah? How's that workin'? Does it record video?
I'm pretty sure that just records [beep].
I mean, honestly, I don't even know how to use this.
Give it to me! Let's go into the lab, huh?
[Zooming]
And here we have our G.E. Turntable Microwave, who we've named Jackie.
And uh, I have the video camera right in my pocket, here.
And the idea, that you've requested I don't know how many times, is you want us to see if we can get the video off the camera,
after we microwave it. To see what it's like inside Jackie.
So uh, we're going to take the table out, that way it'll prevent the spinning action.
Okay, so now that the cameras on, I am going to put it on movie mode, and press the record button.
Alright, so I think I'll put it in there for 2:24.
You ready?
I was born ready!
Let's do it!
[Zooming]
[Mumbling]
Alright guys! It's sparking.
Okay, I am pretty sure that at this point, the video camera is dead, and all video is non-recoverable.
(Riley): Two minutes left.
Wow, you know, the view--
[Fire poof] Riley: Whoa!
[Laughing] Son of a...
Just like when Jory does it, whenever we turn around, I always miss the explosion.
Give it a few seconds, I don't want to kill this guy,
So, kill it now! Cut it off.
Lets go in now.
Masks on, go Jory!
[Zooming]
That is still really on fire!
I'm getting my beastly gloves on. We see what...
Oh, dear shoot!
Come over here, Jory. We'll let it burn itself out for a few seconds.
Okay, how do I use this?
Squirt it. Do it!
How does it work?
There's a pin in the way!
Damnit no! There's no pressure!
There's no pressure!
I'm going to try this Jory Caron way!
Wow! It really is as easy
It is easy as it looks.
So the fire extinguisher doesn't work now.
I'm just going to take a h'wild guess here, and say that the memory card is no longer recoverable.
I'm not sure if you can see this here, I think this is the memory chip, or the motherboard, I don't know.
(Jory) I think you should stick it in your computer and find out.
I'd rather stick it up your asshole, but what else do we have in here?
(Jory) I'm guessing parts to a camera...
You see all the buttons on it, does it still work?
Uhhh, no!
I gotta say, its my time to shine, as the host. It's my time to decide whether or not if it was a good idea to microwave a camera.
I'm just going to say, that it's a bad idea. The memory card is supposed to be right there,
I don't even see the remains of where it would be.
That about does it for [saying title] I am your fill in host, for this episode only, Jonathan Paula.

Okay, so this is what it would look like had we actually been able to recover video from the video camera.
I'm going to put the video in here, in the microwave. Looks good to me. Close the door.
And then we'll set the time, and then we go away.
Boom! You're done, son. You're done!
At this point the microwave would have shut off the video signal, you would see nothing. At all.
This concludes this scientific announcement. Thank you, good night.
