It's easier than you think, since actual boiling, that is bubbles escaping hot water, can only be achieved with a "seed" (say a point, preferably sharp, where bubbles can form). Normally, minerals in the water and imperfections in the surface of the container are more than enough for this to happen. However, distilled water has no such minerals, and if you put it in a relatively smooth container and stick it in the microwave, the water can be heated beyond the normal boiling point and will remain perfectly still.

Do we need to tell you that if you must try this at home, to only do it with adult supervision and proper safety equipment? Do we really? Because we have a feeling that no matter what we say, some of your are going to try this, and that at least one of you, for some reason, will do it nude.
