Reply to comment by Stopa42 in 5 second toaster and kettle by F1NNTORIO
Setting my house on fire for 5-second kettle is a reasonable tradeoff, where do I sign up?
If I nuke my neighborhood can I have 5-second pizza or hot pockets?!

Now there’s a question. At what distance from a nuclear bomb with the heat from the explosion perfectly cook a hot pocket

I'm content to read the results of that experiment from hundreds of miles away.

Drop it right on top of the hot pocket to ensure the proper molten magma temp inside to burn all your taste buds

I don't want to say for sure, but I'm pretty sure there was 2014-ish youtube video about that, might've been one of the Vsauce channels or something. Think they determined that its actually impossible.

Yeah, was gonna say I swear I’ve seen a vid on like flash cooking a frozen pizza

If this isn’t already in one of Randall Munroes books, expect it to be very soon!

I feel like Randall Munroe (of XKCD fame!) would be able to answer this on his What If? site; it's full of stuff exactly like this. Here's one that answers, from how high would you need to drop a steak for it to be cooked when it hits the ground?

Your hot pockets will still be cold in the middle.....
