Danica Patrick Reveals the Most Common Household Thing She’s Been Avoiding for Years

Sometimes, it is easy to forget that some of our favorite celebrities are just as human as us. The same goes for former IndyCar and NASCAR driver Danica Patrick.

Recently, she shared a video about the dangers of using microwaves.

Patrick even confessed that she had been avoiding using them for years. Considering the content of the video, she has pretty much dodged a bullet.

If we’re being completely honest, the levels emitted from that one single microwave looked pretty alarming.

According to this explanation, there was a device that measured the levels given off by the microwave.

At a close range, it was around 2000-3000. It then jumped to around 2-2.5 million and there was an incessant buzzing sound that lasted up till at least 20-30 feet away.

Patrick shared the Instagram Reel on her Story and wrote, “Been avoiding these for years!”
