I personally would guess fake but I am not sure .. I have seen a few other videos of this being done and every time there is a cloth over the table so you cannot see underneath it! My guess is there is a heat source hidden below.

Damn Snopes....takes all the fun out of making you guys do stupid stuff.....I could just picture a bunch of you trying to cook popcorn with your cell phones.

I was really hoping to see the egg get cooked with the phones, but I guess not. As for the popcorn with the phones, I agree with Nuts4you that you can't see what's under the table, and they only used three phones, and we already saw that 200 phones couldn't do the egg, so...I don't know...I'll say fake.



If it's not fixed, then don't broke it!

Your microwave on average puts out 900-1500 watts of energy in that small little box.

Your average cell phone puts out a few milliwatts of microwave energy in huge open space.

If your phone put out that much power to pop popcorn that quickly, I think you'd have some more issues then wondering if you went over monthly text limit :D
