The Man Who Cured Cancer & Burned Sea Water

R.I.P. John Kanzius. He developed a new treatment for cancer using radio waves, and in the process, discovered he could burn ocean water! This discovery has led many to dream of a cancer cure and cars powered by the liquid covering 70% of Earth's surface-



How Stuff Works

Kanzius' journey toward surprise inspiration began with a leukemia diagnosis in 2003. Faced with the prospect of debilitating chemotherapy, he decided he would try to invent a better alternative for destroying cancerous cells. What he came up with is his radio frequency generator (RFG), a machine that generates radio waves and focuses them into a concentrated area. Kanzius used the RFG to heat small metallic particles inserted into tumors, destroying the tumors without harming normal cells. But what does cancer treatment have to do with burning salt water?

TreeHugger.com: Ethanol Basics During a demonstration of the RFG, an observer noticed that it was causing water in a nearby test tube to condense. If the RFG could make water condense, it could theoretically separate salt out of seawater. Perhaps, then, it could be used to desalinize water, an issue of global proportions. The old seaman's adage "Water, water everywhere and not a drop to drink" applies inland as well: Some nations are drying up and their populations suffering from thirst, yet the world is 70 percent ocean water. An effective means of removing salt from salt water could save countless lives. So it's no surprise that Kanzius trained his RFG on the goal of salt water desalinization.

Kanzius tried the test again, this time lighting a paper towel and touching it to the water while the water was in the path of the RFG. He got an even bigger surprise -- the test tube ignited and stayed alight while the RFG was turned on. News of the experiment was generally met with allegations of it being a hoax, but after Penn State University chemists got their hands on the RFG and tried their own experiments, they found it was indeed true. The RFG could ignite and burn salt water. The flame could reach temperatures as high as 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit and burn as long as the RFG was on and aimed at it. But how could salt water possibly ignite? Why don't careless litterbugs who flick lit cigarette butts into the sea set the whole planet aflame? It all has to do with hydrogen. In its normal state, salt water has a stable composition of sodium chloride (the salt) and hydrogen and oxygen (the water). But the radio waves from Kanzius' RFG disrupt that stability, degrading the bonds that hold the chemicals in salt water together. This releases the volatile hydrogen molecules, and the heat output from the RFG ignites them and burns them indefinitely.

Kanzius RF Therapy is an experimental cancer treatment that employs a combination of either gold or carbon nanoparticles and radio waves to heat and destroy cancer cells without damaging healthy cells.[5][6][7] The specific absorption rate for radio waves by living tissue in the proposed wavelengths and intensity levels is very low. Metals absorb this energy much more efficiently than tissue through dielectric heating; Richard Smalley has suggested that carbon nanotubes could be used to similar purpose.[8] If nanoparticles were to be preferentially bound to cancer sites, cancer cells could be destroyed or induced into apoptosis while leaving healthy tissue relatively unharmed.[9] This preferential targeting represents a major technical challenge. According to a presentation by Dr. Steven Curley, the types of cancer potentially treatable using Kanzius RF therapy include essentially all forms of cancer.[10] Kanzius built a prototype Kanzius RF device in his home, and formed Therm Med., LLC to test and market his inventions.[11][12] The device was successfully tested at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center in 2005.[2] As of 2007-04-23, preliminary research using the device at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center[13][14][15] and the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center[11] has shown early promise. If federal approval is granted, testing on human patients may follow.

Later in 2007, Kanzius announced that the same radio frequency transmitter can also be used to burn hydrogen electrolyzed from salt water.[14][17] The discovery was made accidentally while he was researching the use of radio waves for desalination. Kanzius said that "In this case we weren't looking for energy, we were looking for something that might do desalinization. The more we tried desalinization, the more heat we produced, until we got fire".[17] Kanzius admitted that this process could not be considered an energy source, as more energy is used to produce the RF signal than can be obtained from the burning gas and stated in July 2007 that he never claimed his discovery would replace oil, asserting only that his discovery was "thought provoking."[18] The details of the process are still unreleased pending the issuance of a patent

Will big pharma AND big oil sweep this under the rug or have they already?

Both of those vid's are very cool, and the techonology is definite, but they look slightly old, like a couple of years. So, I think Big Pharma and Big Oil has already swept it under the rug.

I was curious about his death and looked it up so I'll share the following:

John Kanzius died from pneumonia on February 18, 2009, aged 64, at a hospital near Sanibel, Florida, where he had a winter home. The pneumonia developed as complication after two recent rounds of chemotherapy

get ready for all the "smart people" who will tell you this is all a fake and can't work. I got so tired of hearing that crap. This stuff is real and could save our existence, but Exxon would never let it happen. With money comes power, and who has all the money? Big oil. In fact, if they feel like they need more, they just raise the price at the pump.

Same with the cure for cancer. They've already had numerous cures that have been covered up because there is too much money in the healthcare involved with Cancer.

Well, that's odd. A guy who supposedly invented a cure for cancer with radio waves was undergoing chemo?

Must be like how Mother Theresa prayed for her orphans, then flew to a Los Angeles hospital every time she caught a sniffle

Anyone can find me a REAL doctor to hear this????

ANYONE???A DOCTOR.A REAL DOCTOR!!!

I am annoyed with all this system of money.I cannot take it anymore.

Ie Hydrazine Sulfate

Stanley Meyers figured out how to "fracture water" energy efficiently, not using normal electrolysis in the 1980s.

He found that if you use a circuit to convert the amperage to voltage, and mulitply the voltage, then pulsing the current using the RESONANT FREQUENCY of water, it would tear apart the water molecule and render 2 parts hydrogen and 1 part oxygen, in a very energy efficient way.

Oh yeah, Stanley Meyers was murdered in 1998. Poisoned to death.

I think his motivation for finding a cure for cancer was a diagnosis of ....cancer. At least he didn't just roll over. Since the scientific community already proved this one true(at least the burning sea water part), it would be difficult to hide it. But then again, so did Meyers. And look how he ended up.

Bump - this deserves another look-see round.
