Microwaves align polar molecules such as water with the microwaves. This rotation generates energy, which dissipates as heat. So you would be cooked as if you were in a microwave oven.

Harm of microwaves escaping a microwave?
actually, you don't need to worry about exposure to them, as long as you can get out of the way in around five minutes, since microwaves are somewhat weak and can do radioactive harm only when you are exposed to it for quite a while. and today, the microwaves you use usually stop heating the minute you open the door, so that is safe. however, just don't stick any metal, whether it be a metal bar or aluminum foil, ever in the microwave. the distortions on a metal surface conducts the electromagnetic waves from the microwaves and converts them into electricity and heat, and even an fire and explosions are possible.
How do microwaves affect your body?
It depends on the wavelength, and the intensity. Most microwaves pass through us with no issues. Microwaves used for heating water will heat our tissues, causing damage / death.
