afew months ago I answered this question :
Are you a trained stuntperson? Are you legally an adult who has the maturity to acknowledge the possible consequences? Because if this doesn't apply to you then the answer is don't be stupid, leave the stunt work to the professionals (who get paid for it in cash, not laughs). Edit: Maybe check youtube for human stunts to get some ideas. As long as you're being as safe as possible and you're aware of the possibility of injuryI just wanted to caution you in case you were some teenage kid trying crap like this at a house party. I've seen some pretty wild human slingshot vids, so maybe that could be a consideration.
This site does *not* explain the harmful effects of microwaving. It gives the results of a science fair projectwhich by no means is a reason to jump to the conclusion that microwaving water is harmful. For these results to be valid, the experiment would have to run numerous times (hundreds) by different researchers, the water tested for various impurities each time it is used to water the plants (regardless of what you think about filtered water, it is not necessarily pure), the environment and containers tested for impurities, that both plants are exposed to exactly similar growth factors (especially amount of nitrogen, potassium, phosphorus, carbon dioxide, oxygen, sunlight), etc. Didn't the website even say the girl was trying to get the one plant to grow less than the other? This proves that she had bias going into the experiment, which in itself would make the results invalid. There are rumors floating around that microwaving fatty foods in plastic containers releases cancer-causing dioxins into the the food, that freezing water in plastic bottles does the same, but the research has never been published in any scientific, public health, or medial journal as far as I have seen.
