Do Not Microwave Your iPhone!

By on 01/24/2013 08:52 PST

iphone5 microwave Do Not Microwave Your iPhone!Now this is a public service announcement, and just in case some folks out there lack the common sense to weigh what they have read online and know how to filter things through, remember that you should never, ever microwave your iphone just to charge its battery. It seems that there are some folks living in Japan who came across this sagely advice online, and fell for it, hook, line and sinker, and obviously ended up with heartbreaking results.

It definitely sounds unbelievable, but as they say, truth is indeed stranger than fiction, and there has been images of microwaved iPhones appearing all over the Internet, mostly by the “victims” who realized that they have been duped. Apparently, this thread began from a Japanese internet noticeboard known as “2channel“, where it touted that the iPhone 5 can be juiced up in a microwave for 20 seconds, while it takes half a minute for the iPhone 4S to be charged up. Norton should come up with some sort of naive filter for the Internet, really!

 This is a scenario one may think of when they hear of the rash of microwaved iPhone 5′s on the internet the past few weeks, but alas, the real scenarios are a little more, shall we say, stupid. In Japan,  an internet noticeboard known as “2channel” claimed that the iPhone 5 would catch a full charge by microwaving it for 20 seconds, and the iPhone 4s takes 30 seconds. But the only thing these microwaved iPhones have been catching is fire.

Needless to say the “victims” are furious, posting pictures of fried iPhones on the internet, and berating comments. It seems that these iPhone microwavers were duped in part by Twitter, which helped spread the microwave iPhone charging rumors around the twitterverse.  Here are some tweets from this debacle:

-“I read on a Twitter timeline that you can charge an iPhone quickly by heating it in a microwave, so I tried it and now my phone is        broken. I hope whoever spread this dies, asshole!”

-”Really, these guys are too gullible!”

-”The whole story has got to be a performance.”

-”Idiots swallowed the story whole!”

-”Why don’t these idiots try cooking a whole raw egg in the microwave? That should be fun.”

-”I’m more interested in learning how and what kind of people would actually believe such nonsense.”

So there you have it folks, the internet is full of LIES. Well, not really. Just remember that not everything you read online is true, and please guys, do a little research before trying stuff like this. It will leave your pocketbook empty, and maybe even get you a nomination for the Darwin Awards.
