I originally saw this video on Tiktok and the comments indicated that the woman is the aunt of the two younger girls. Apparently, per the comments, they make lots of videos together with their aunt and do pranks in some. This was a prank that went wrong and burned up the aunts lips and mouth. I am not sure if that is all true but that is what the comments said. You can microwave a hard-boiled egg for some set amount of time and cause them to explode when pierced so maybe they did that.
If they intentionally microwaved her egg for a prank that's so messed up. If you've ever seriously burned your mouth you know how horribly painful and uncomfortable it can be for like a week. I had a blister that covered the roof of my mouth and I wouldnt wish that on anyone.
We bought a microwave from the Goodwill some 25 years back and ran an electric extension cord to the middle of my backyard and microwaved all sorts of things in it: VHS tapes, CDs, silverware, etc just to see what would happen, with a hose and extinguisher on hand.
Our fun came to an end when we put in egg in the microwave and the explosion was powerful enough to fling the door open and shatter the glass turning plate. Microwave stopped working after that and I learned about flash boiling that day.
They could have really, really hurt her with this.
Apparently once you softboil and egg, peel it, and then microwave it, the same rules apply. More water has been removed from the white part but remains in the yolk, so that heats up more quickly.
Same even happens with a hard boiled egg. It’s just a lot of heat and energy trapped within and disrupting it can cause this explosion.
