I wouldn't say that. I must live near him, because I see him at my local grocery store sometimes when I'm there. I never said anything to him until about three months ago. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
The electronics project that sketched me out the most was my massive capacitor bank. That thing was lethal. This was back when you could just go to the photo development section and just ask for their used disposable cameras and they would give them to you. If I remember correctly it was about 800 capacitors running at around 600 volts. When I realized our math was off by more than a factor of 10 was when I vaporized a piece of copper I was using as a fuse. The thing that still concerns me to this day is that it went missing in a move. I really hope no one tried to use this. Because this thing sketches me out as much or more than microwave transformers. Making giant capacitor banks is also very lethal idea that you probably shouldn't do.

"Many people will argue that nothing can beat the flavor of a microwaved steak" 16:28 I had to laugh quite a few times while watching this video but this line beats everything
Hey man completely random comment but i think watching your videos and such like yours is what helped me make my decision to go into electrical engineering and go to school for it and basically i wanted to say even though you are messing around and doing some dumb stuff you inspired me to become interested on how everything works and how i could build things of my own one day so thank you hoss
Ah, I finally figured out why you remind me of HowToBasic, they throw a massive amount of eggs at everything, you "throw" a massive amount of electrons at everything, and destruction is inherent to the process.
I wonder if the microwave could be used to jam electronics, he mentioned it because the FCC will come after you. So maybe you could turn it into a ‘microwave gun’?
"Whenever electronics hobbyists get killed by their projects its usually from messing around with microwave parts like these" *proceeds to fondle the guts of the microwave*
We must protect this young scientist at all costs, for our own safety. He's one really bad day away from writing his name onto the moon and declaring laser war on the entire world!
All i want is a phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range. If he can make that happen, i will forever become his personal bodyguard until I die or he finds someone better. But I'm keeping my plasma rifle 😎
I love how you casually mention that you have the materials and knowledge to build inertial confinement fusion lasers and then go back to cooking smores with the most powerful CW laser you've ever built. Madman.
@@dot32 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_confinement_fusion I'm not a scientist, but it basically is a laser to start off a fusion reaction. You hit the fuel pellet with a laser, the outside explodes, and pushes the inside hard enough to start the reaction. Read more on your own, and take my recap with a grain of salt ;)
@@theories665 Really cool! It's a shame he didn't go on to use his knowledge to build a better future for us. He could've been the inventor of the first affordable, carbon free fusion reactor, yet he went on to make toasts and overcooked steak in a lazer oven. Madman.
@@BenjamintYT Who knows? He may still be pursuing a job in this area, or he's still finding opportunities. All I know is that he should be financially okay, or he just stole a bunch of microwaves...
Well, he basically just built a cubesat-sized super-powerful laser array... Slap some solar panels and a battery on it and you've got an orbital death ray!
It's the "Crazy Factor", William Osman is middling at it, and that doesn't fill people with confidence. Styropyro is over the top confident to the point of mad scientist, and that brings it into the realm of professional tomfoolery.
X-Rays are ionizing radiation that penetrate solid matter and can harm bystanders. Blue/Ultraviolet lasers and microwave radiation are easily contained and non-ionizing. William Osman isn't exposing himself for long periods of time, and at most he's catching the sidelobe emissions of the X-Ray tube, so it's not that great an exposure, but it's far more risky than working with lasers.
"When electronics hobbiest's get killed by their projects, its almost always because they're messing around with microwave parts like 'ThEeEeSe'." *Casually fondles man-killer entrails*
Fun fact, at a messy 2.4 GHz, you could be interfering with the Transponders used in aviation. That is the piece of equipment that send your altitude and position to ATC for their radar, so depending on how close you are to an airport, you could actually completely block your nearest airport's secondary radar. This kind of relates to the FCC he was talking about, but you would also get involved with the FAA and maybe even ATSB if something go's wrong.
@@ornessarhithfaeron3576 I think EM waves, especially at those with lower freqs do travel pretty far, so if they are directed in the correct way anything could happen
my ion beam for the ibkt project will block a country from radar but due to a high fidelity yield graphene filter it shields the extreme rays and still able to cut a home in half with a swipe. when u do 45deg swipe then the top half slides down the lower half .
I used a microwave oven to make an actually SAFE fractal wood burning rig. Left the interlocks in place, put electrodes in the wood, spritz with the electrolyte, shut door, turn it on
When hobbyists get killed by their projects, it's usually because they're messing around in a microwave like this (proceeds to stuff hand recklessly into circuitry)

I wouldn't say that. I must live near him, because I see him at my local grocery store sometimes when I'm there. I never said anything to him until about three months ago. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

The electronics project that sketched me out the most was my massive capacitor bank. That thing was lethal.
This was back when you could just go to the photo development section and just ask for their used disposable cameras and they would give them to you. If I remember correctly it was about 800 capacitors running at around 600 volts. When I realized our math was off by more than a factor of 10 was when I vaporized a piece of copper I was using as a fuse.
The thing that still concerns me to this day is that it went missing in a move. I really hope no one tried to use this. Because this thing sketches me out as much or more than microwave transformers.
Making giant capacitor banks is also very lethal idea that you probably shouldn't do.
He doesn’t just have a laser array, he has an array of laser arrays. Amazing.

I like how people got mad at William Osman for making an xray machine while this man's just making death rays on the daily lmao
It's the "Crazy Factor", William Osman is middling at it, and that doesn't fill people with confidence. Styropyro is over the top confident to the point of mad scientist, and that brings it into the realm of professional tomfoolery.
Will looked completely out of his depth, whereas Drake's extremely knowledgeable about the dangers of this stuff
X-Rays are ionizing radiation that penetrate solid matter and can harm bystanders. Blue/Ultraviolet lasers and microwave radiation are easily contained and non-ionizing.
William Osman isn't exposing himself for long periods of time, and at most he's catching the sidelobe emissions of the X-Ray tube, so it's not that great an exposure, but it's far more risky than working with lasers.
Nothing too dangerous
Hes just making death electric machine gun

Fun fact, at a messy 2.4 GHz, you could be interfering with the Transponders used in aviation. That is the piece of equipment that send your altitude and position to ATC for their radar, so depending on how close you are to an airport, you could actually completely block your nearest airport's secondary radar. This kind of relates to the FCC he was talking about, but you would also get involved with the FAA and maybe even ATSB if something go's wrong.
