- From 2007, filmed on a DV cam and encoded in something shit, it's another old video that dropped off the internet! (Changes: Had to replace the music for copyright reasons. Out-take added to the end.)
- Zábava
This is one of the only times to my knowledge we ever saw the Brown Sofa being actually used as a sofa.
He sits on it in the Flip Video review as well.
@@rzeka And the Toshiba Camilio H10
also the end of "Where's my sofa?" iirc
i never saw a microwave with all the buttons inside the door before :/
The front is tinted, too. Now the display is more difficult to see. _Genius_
Well, he made the smart move of ditching said microwave shortly after filming. Hopefully for one where the buttons can be accessed from the outside.
Agent Paradox Who even designs a microwave like that? o_0
Crazy cretins, that's who.
Agent Paradox Jackasses.
Why do I feel like I've stumbled onto a video from the 90's? This is from 2007!
_2007 is closer to the nineties than I am to 2007._
wow.
Oh god oh fuck
@@rlanger3108 fuck...
Ahhhh
Aaaarrrgghh
ahhh yes, this is indeed a vintage ashens, a rare oddity indeed, but like a fine wine. kills your livers and is favored by depressed people.
What a comment.
Although in moderation, fine wine (and malt whisky) is beneficial to your health.
ThatOneEngie I didn't know I had more than a liver! Cool!
RealSoundAdrian you do if you get a transplant
The finest aged Buckfast.
That last bit was genuinely heart-warming.
ChickenPika I didn't know it was a female, but that last bit certainly brought Ashens into a more innocent light. An excellent blooper.
ChickenPika ChickenPika?
MY HERO
I keep forgetting that he actually has a Doctorate, its awesome every time!
You seem relaxed, human and happy. What happened to you?
The crushing despair of Poundland tat hadn't entirely worn him down at that point.
He got old.
He had a girlfriend at that point.
Life and terrible Poundland products. It also doesn't help that he's had terrible food FROM Poundland and various other places, off or otherwise. Probably changed his brain chemistry...
+Heliophanus True, he's what, 35, 36 now?
Was merely in his late 20s when he made this... and already could have passed for a 40 year old.
Edit: he was 38 when the video was posted and would have been 30ish when it was made.
Only the true Ashens fans have seen this when it was first uploaded.
SIMON PEGG!
Wait... that comment don't work anymore...
I miss 2007
I think if I put that in my microwave for 5 minutes, a small pile of ash is all that would remain. I'm pretty sure my microwave uses an antimatter beam to cook food. It's goddamn ridiculous.
JLConawayII 3000 watt?
JLConawayII Russian nuclear device?
JLConawayII a mini death star in your microwave?
JLConawayII I'm pretty sure that if you struck some food with a beam of antimatter your house would explode.
+JLConawayII Tiny Ashen in the microwave? Devil magic.
I've only started watching Ashens in the past year. And holy shit. This is ten years old. You're so damned youthful lol
And then 9 years later Barry makes a video on the same thing, only this one is *gasp* round!
Mike Jeavons made one too.
i wish my microwave played music like that XD
7 years and you look exactly the same. Yup... Alien.
Or a vampire.
Or Time Lord
Not Alien, Ashens
Or a man with great skin ;)
*****
He is The Master!
holy shit guys
he is SITTING on the sofa
There's a bunny in the bowl. I didn't know Ashen had such cute bunny plush :3
They sure have the perfect amount of crunchyness, judging by the sound they make.
Now you just need some very spicy flavoring on those and you have the perfect snack
for me, that is
I remember seeing this video before it was taken down; I laughed so hard when reading the title - it was already stupid enough that someone tried inventing a 'crisp maker' for a microwave. Such a comical piece of plastic.
oh man, the old song is what made this video hilarious
I remember the video, but not the old song. Do you know what it was?
It sounded like stock elevator music. I'm sure I have the old video saved somewhere.
waymuu
Oh, I bet I know the track. Ashens liked to use it.
What was the old song? I can't remember as I watched this so long ago.
i suddenly remember it now, god dammit that was great
I remember when this was originally uploaded on the Gizmodo channel back in 2007. I was trying to look for this video a few months ago and I'm glad to see it back.
Whoa. Almost 10 years later and you look exactly the same.
I know right? You would never have thought he was 287 years old...
Literally the only difference is his hair.
I wish my microwave would play classy music while cooking my meals!
that would make me a classy fellow.
Uhm excuse me but in America we don't call them crisps we call them بھیڑ کی آنتوں
So hes british what do what ever u call them have to do with it its not all about you lot you know
Jake Dolby
you hear that thing whizzing past your head?
yeah, that was the joke.
That's what they call them in most of the UK too!
Bear and France, and Germany, and Sweden, and...
Hi Ho Wolverhampton sweden yes
I just love how theres a popstation on the table...you know nearly 700,000 subscribers is pretty good but ashens deserves more! Ashens deserves at least 2 million subscribers!
Ashens, your link to the world of culinary delights!
Was this recorded on a potato too?
in 2007. Read the description.
+KirbyMario12345 So was this HD in 2007? O_O
+Dragon Butt (ThatsNoMoon) Basically
Big - you tried
Recorded on a DV cam in 2007 and encoded in something shit.
That's a bloody great crisp cooking hat
Results may vary on, Thickness of the slice, Type of Potatoes, Power of Microwave, Size of Microwave, if you wiped your ass, It's Chef Excellence Approved, Time of Day, if you soaked out most of the moisture out of the potatoes you could before hand, Washed your hands after wiping your ass, were too Fucking lazy to just go buy a bag at the Pound/Dollar Store, used 3 Sad Onions instead of Potatoes.
That potato sliceing skill! hes a true master *.*
It's a shame the music had to be changed. That was my favorite part.
That last head cooing was adorable, Ashens - Didn't expect that out of you.
I think I remember this one. Ashen, your just as good today as you were back in 2007. One of my favorite CZcamsrs.
1:01
I didn't know Ashens was a cyborg ninja.
7 Years later and his house still looks like he lives at his parents!
'i haven't filled it up because I am lazy' oh I love watching these old ones 😂
This video was 7 years old when it was uploaded. 7 years ago…
I’m here in 2019 and this is still quality
What a stupid model of microwave... you need to open the door in order to press the buttons
Definitely not for people who want to just press the buttons without putting anything in the microwave.
That's all right. When I had my nan's old microwave, you had to push "start" even though the timer was a knob.
Thorondor123 I close the microwave door and then press the buttons...
*****
Oh no...so you'd have to change the routine in a barely significant way! How horrifying!
Paul Dennett Only if he buy this stupid microwave
Interesting microwave, the buttons are INSIDE the door. Wild.
I was searching this video for so long! Glad to see it back, Ashens :D
Not going to lie, i feel physically ill watching this. My grandmother bought one of these (right around 2007). Not sure if we didn't read the instructions correctly, or they were just flat out wrong, but it was 5 mins in the microwave, then i tried one... Soggy, warm, half cooked potato... Didn't eat any chips/crisps for a few years after that, and i can still remember the smell. lol
tbh that doesnt sound that bad
Daaaaaaaaaaamn this is an ooooooooold one, this is like way back around the time I remember you doing a couple reviews for Gizmodo
i just google and shocked to know that Stuart have a doctorate in psychology, based on what wiki wrote
Syafeeq Said hence why he knows how to make everyone laugh
Syafeeq Said one time he showed his full name in a video and it said Dr. Stuart Ashen
And look what he did with it!
Seeing somebody actually sitting on that sofa is more jarring than it should be given that that's what sofas are meant for
ashens I love you, your videos never seize to amaze me
Aaaah. A fine vintage Ashens. I am also a man of culture.
Chef Excellence an excellent comment
Thank you Stuart for reposting this!
It's great to see this again! I always laugh at the Mortal Kombat sting.
0:58 God, hearing that fatality sound brought back memories.
Oh, that and the fact that this video is originally from 2007.
I like old videos!
it's even older now
@@thegreatape170 amazing
i've been told that to make them in the microwave, you should coat them in oil first. might not make a difference, but who knows?
What a fantastic hat, Dr Ashen!
Wow! Fancy hats AND violin music? British microwaves sure are fancy!
Got to admire a man who has his own longsword.
Wow, what a blast from the past.
Aww classic ashens is adorable!
This is a great idea, it's like eating real potato. Perish the thought I would actually want to eat potato when I eat potato chips.
Even included the outtake, nice.
Chainsaws are indeed an excellent tool for cutting potatoes!
Ash will agree on that one
Oh TB101 I've been watching your videos so long I read your comment in MS Sam's voice.
Microsoft Sam: [Servant Brute moan]
I like that microwave design, but I don't like it covering the buttons, but it looks so good.
I somehow can and cannot believe this man is an actual doctor...
I had one of these but never used it. Also, I think I remember watching this when you first uploaded it. Blimey.
what a blast from the past!
Wow, that really was encoded in something shit. I thought the quality was just the camera, but then that outtake at the end looked great.
No jump cuts? This truly is retro.
That is one dapper hat Dr. Ashens
Something in my brain refuses to believe that physical Ashens, and disembodied voice Ashens are one and the same.
Ashens looks so young and cheerful about life!
the description alone is great XD
Incredible, has he always been that good infront of a camera?
a very friendly camera man indeed.
Isn't it ironic when you're watching this video while actually eating the crisps?
+ThatSaneGuy XD
The Microwave is shaped like the Ore Ida logo, perfect for cooking potatoes :P
The internet: where people can argue about a stupid mircowave for months on end.
Yes, it is a stupid microwave.
Best cooking video ever!
This takes me back, I was 12 when i first saw this, I'm at university now. I think there's a direct correlation between those two details
This thankfully was on the Ashenthology DVD, but I remember when it was new as well. I think it was on Gizmodo if I recall?
Funny out take at the end 😄
The bunny in the bowl makes me happy
Ashens we need more Throwbacks
I'd recommend a katana instead of a longsword to get much thinner and precise slices, that is why they took so much extra time. (seriously, maybe if they were thinner they would cook faster).
Sorry to be "that guy". But a katana is no more precise than a long sword. A katana's blade is actually quite thick.
***** Damn, irrefutable logic; my only weakness.
AgentTasmania
Don't believe the hype. The vikings where making some of the finest blades in the world in the late 1st Century. The reason a katana is made from folded steel is because of the rarity of good steel in Japan. Once they found a design that kind of worked, they didn't change it. Where as the constant power struggles in Europe evolved both the Art of War and metalergy
AgentTasmania
Who's talking about long swords, I'm talking about metalergy.
AgentTasmania
I was replying to your comment about viking blades. Besides the fact that early Norse blades where based on the spatha, it's self a Roman longsword, and that as a general rule they got longer with time. But that's besides the point, you need to read more about Viking crucibled steel. It wasn't bettered until the industrial revolution. The Japanese didn't have this technology for another 800 years.
That's a very nice microwave you have. Mine is an ancient, low-wattage relic that still uses knobs as opposed to buttons.
I miss my old relic. Had it my entire life, it died two years ago and now we have one with a jet turbine for ventilation. It also sucks at cooking things properly.
PsylomeAlpha My relic takes forever to cook anything. For example, the other day, I put in a packet of popcorn. The packet said to microwave for 4 minutes. However, after 4 minutes, not a single kernel was popped, so I had to set it for another 4 minutes. In other words, it takes at least twice as long to cook as a normal microwave. But hey, it still works, and if it ain't broke, there's no need to replace it!
BikerBoyNJ
mine only took about a minute longer than it used to. it also survived multiple explosions and kept ticking for nearly another decade.
Wow, 2007? That's got to be one of the first food videos Ashens ever did. I didn't even remember him doing any of those until... 2012 or something like that?
This isn't really a food review, it's just a review of the microwave.
***** This isn't really a microwave review, it's just a review of the Crisp Maker
solidsnakegirl :)
:P
The popstation was in 2006.
use salt, makes it better :P
***** how
:( :(d there ment to be healthy. If your going to put salt on them just buy normal cripis ya dingus
They'll still be slightly healthier even if you do use salt because at least you're not deep fat frying them, so less fat
loonygoldfish You either wanna eat healthy or you dont. There is not a middle ground haha.
John Kramer Salt isnt unhealthy,
Its just that you shouldnt have to many,
This will still be more healthy as it isnt fried,
I also tryed using peper, isnt that bad ;)
This must be the last time he used his PhD for anything. "Hi, I'm Dr. Ashen!"
Ah, I remember this. The old video's music was far better, but that's copyright for you.
TIL Crisp means Potato Chip
***** >TILthis isnt reddit
That is a pretty cool looking microwave
1:45 Rick from Rick an Morty and awaaaaaay we go.
This video had alot of potential instead of showing us how to make crips it could have just been a 7 minute video of crips in the microwave
Aww - I remember this! ...Goodness..How long have I been watching these...!?
Never saw the original video so I'm curious what the music was? The new music works for me just perfectly though :)
I remember when this was first released 8 years ago and I've only JUST noticed the Pop Station on the table.
Chef excellence would be proud
This gives me an idea...Ashens should do an episode where he reviews himself on the couch.
Oh that stuffed bunny in the bowl. More of this in Master Chef!
Now That's Some Excellent Cooking.
Its a new product from the terifficaly good company
Wasn't this on Gizmodo at some point?
+Nettacki yeah, the laser pointer one too
You're meant to cut the slices really thin, like actual crisp thickness then they come out fine
Good to know that EVERYONE had an lolsorandumxD phase a few years ago. Good on you Ashens for putting it right out there.
