    Just for the record... I don't think petrol polarises in magnetic fields so it wouldn't heat up in a microwave.

    Just for the record, if you WHERE to put petrol and only petrol in a microwave, whilst it wouldn't heat up, you might build enough of a charge for a nice big arc. That'd be bad.

    If you're name is Bender, I would seriously suggest not standing in front of a microwave with the door open when it's switched on.

    Re: microwave - open - switched on

    Dr Percy Spencer, inventor of the microwave, said "I would rather anything than die of an internal burn" .

    I would take his implicit advice and not play with it.

    Re: microwave - open - switched on

    There are plenty of video's of people doing dangerous things with Microwaves on YouTube, I suggest anyone who wants to see what happens watch those instead of trying this sort of thing at home.

    True. There's fun to be had with an egg in a microwave, but you have to clean it up afterwards.
