** Another Website/YouTube channel, Microwave Me, learned this the hard way. The uploader microwaved a lava lamp and allowed it to cool for 10 minutes after it didn't blow up. When he went to check on the lamp, it exploded and showered him with hot wax and glass shards. Thankfully, he came out fine with just some minor burns.

* Episode #167 (the first "Airbag"): The airbag deployed mere moments after Jory took cover. The result was Summer being blown to bits, flinging her door into the driveway and firing shrapnel into the garage door with enough force to ''shatter the outer layer of glass''. Had Jory dawdled ''at all'', he ran the risk of getting injured or '''killed'''. In the aftermath, both Jory and Riley are [[SincerityMode emphatic]] that microwaving an airbag ''is '''not''' a good idea'', the incident resulted in a RealitySubtext RunningGag of "safety is our number one concern" trailing off as they realized they hadn't been taking safety as seriously as they should have been, and the verdict, displayed over footage of Jory and Riley cleaning up the mess resulting from Summer's remains flying into the door, is "[[BrokeTheRatingScale Really Bad Idea]]".
