microwave oven transformer

Okay, kids, a microwave oven transformer is NOT a sex position or one of megatrons henchmen, it is actually the one electrical component that kills more hobbyists than any other. BAM! Here is your definition. Now enjoy the rest of your day and make sure to not poke around inside a microwave or try to replicate anything you see online that involves using the transformer to generate high voltage electricity unless u really know what ur doing!
A young teenager who saw an article online about wood fracking decided to try and replicate it. He connected the microwave oven transformer up as seen in the article, but forgot to isolate himself properly and the ground outside was damp. He was electrocuted and died.
