Nice fume cupboard, Poindexter

"fume cupboard"...hehehhehe

That cant be petrol they're using. Because with petrol, it's the fumes that burn, not really the liquid. Also, *EIA ?

I've heard the new Iphone is really fragile but holy hell. And don't breath in the fumes he says.. but he's breathing in the fumes by talking!

Russian sewers are filled with vodka fumes combined with methane.

I went into town the other day and tons of kids were turning cars over in the street and lighting them on fire. I own a car shop so I wanted to hand out some business cards. The fumes were thick so I wrapped my face in a bandana so I could breathe easier...

What are they using as an accelerant? It's got to be some heavy fuel with little fumes.


Something pretty oily-Takes the flame a while to start. I'm thinking kerosene-the fumes are a non-issue if the thing is vented at the top to outside, and once fuel oil is going it's hard to blow out.

Must be the fumes.

The fumes from burning Mercuric Sulphocyanate are highly toxic.
Mercury and Cyanide compounds are released into the surrounding air.
This demonstration is no longer widely used because of the toxicity of the by-products.

Maybe you meant to embed the behind the scenes video?

[edit] ... I don't remember why I felt the need to post the video in the comments last night of the same video I had just posted above. Anyway...

They're great, aren't they? I love reading them. Every four months or go I'll go back through them all fresh when I need a good read about things that react violently and burn with vigor. Glad I could help!

I know your comment wasn't aimed at me, but I've read some of them... I've learned not to read them at work, it's hard to pretend you're working while laughing that much.

Note that most of the fume hoods mentioned on that site probably would be bulletproof.
