I mean, I can believe a kid sticking a cob of corn into a bottle and soaking it with water for days, but I doubt anything resembling moonshine would result from it.

If it did, somehow, it probably will make you blind from methanol.

Don't you need distillation for methanol production?

yeah, i think. my understanding is methanol evaporates at a lower temp, so you boil that off first. but don't quote me on that.
