Xbox 360 red blink towel trick video: Death warmed up

We have come across a video of which we DO NOT recommend but what the hell you should see it. A man called CheapyD presents his live video of how to bring back your Xbox 360 back to life. Basically if the Xbox 360 on and off power switch blinks red he has a way to fix the problem temporarily.

In his live video he shows that by wrapping the 360 in 3 towels for a period of time this will in fact heat the console up of which then will reset it.

WARNING – We really do mean this when we say that you SHOULD NOT do this under any circumstances. If you do so it is on your own back.

Is this a crazy idea or what?
