Luckily, the post about cooking eggs with mobile phones has turned out to be a hoax. I say 'luckily' for all those people who keep a mobile phone in their pants and then make calls next to their head all day long.
In short, I did some searching around to find if the popcorn popping with your cellphone was true. I did find that the egg cooking was a hoax laid out by the two Russian journalists. It seems that a UK based science show called Brainiac tried to boil their egg with 100 mobile phones but what they ended up with was a cold undone egg.
