They say that humans first began to make and control fire about 1.9 million years ago. Ancient man used fire to cook his food, warm the cold nights, and ward off nocturnal predators. Because of fire, we wily humans had the ultimate evolutionary advantage.
Nowadays, fire serves many of the same important purposes — but with one big addition: we know how to do some very cool things with it.
But the video you’re about to watch isn’t just awesome; it’s scientifically captivating! I had no idea that fire could be manipulated in such ways. Some of these tricks were so stunning, like the candle that relights itself, that I had to re-watch them a few times.
However, like the beginning of the video warns, these tricks were carefully performed by adults. As the saying goes, “Play with fire and you’ll get burned!” So kids, if you’re reading this, don’t try these tricks at home!
If you were as captivated by these fire experiments as I was, pleaseSHARE this video with your friends!
