please like the video

Step 1: Materials List

first of course you will need a grape. some work better than others.make sure the grapes aren't cold or it won't work.

Full materials list-
Grape
knife(caution!!)
glass cup
microwave

Step 2: Step 1 Prepairing the Grape

First slice a thin piece of the top.

Step 3: Step 2

Then cut the grape down the center "pic 1"  make sure you do not cut all the way through the grape. Next put the grape in the microwave "pic 2"

Step 4: THE TEST!!!!!!!!!!!!

Place cup over the grape.make sure that air is not completely restricted. IMPORTANT NOTE-change the cup about every 2 to 3 tests or it will explode.(I speak from experience). Then put it in for about 10 to 15 seconds (depending on your microwave). And finally nuke it,i love doing this experiment its fun easy and you don't need a lot of materials. it may take a couple of tries and couple different types of grapes. Here is proof that i have done this experiment.    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QwzmYHy9Hhc

Does it damage your microwave?

[KurtG37]

Do you need blue grapes for this? Tried it with 1 sort of white grapes and that didn’t work.

[nerd7473]

how dangerous is this?

[tigr87]

Just don't microwave it for too long or it could become a fire hazard. And don't burn your hand by touching the grape right away.

[nerd7473]

ok but I wouldm't try this in my house maybe a workshop

[tigr87]

I guess. The worst thing that could happen is that you could burn yourself by picking it up or the glass cup might break from temp change.

[nerd7473]

yeah just dont dink it in cold water it will shatter after it has been heated

[tigr87]

That's funny you say that haha.once I picked up with a damp towel and the glass shattered.

This is so cool!
It looks even better live and in person to get the full effect..

You should probably put a warning on this Instructable. This can be very dangerous if not properly done and you don't want to be the one responsible when someone burns down their house doing this

do I have a chance of ruining my microwave doing this?

[tigr87]

i would be lying to you if i said no.but i think that doing it to show your friends wont hurt.just remember not to do it for more than 15 seconds and not to use the same cup if it gets too hot.

[tfoote]

i've never tried it with the glass on top before. once i got a strawberry to do that as well.

[tigr87]

cool. I'm definitely going to try doing the same thing with a strawberry haha
