4 APRIL 2021 Ever wondered if you can cook a chicken solely from the heat generated by slapping it? So did YouTuber Louis Weisz, and the verdict is... yes. Yes, you can. As you can see from the video embedded below, the endeavor took plenty of work – two months' worth in total – from testing out the theory to constructing a super-speedy (and customizable) chicken slapper to actually getting the bird cooked.
But in the end, Weisz did indeed come out with a cooked chicken at the end of it: a triumph of persistence if not really a practical option for your next camping trip.
