What's up everybody, welcome back to my laboratory.
Where safety is number one priority.
A week ago "TheBackyardScientist" did a pretty awesome experiment.
What he did is cut in half two giant vases.
And made a fire tornado.
But cutting glass is kinda difficult, and also it will crack easily.
So I'm going to try to simplify that experiment.
And try to make it with a giant plastic water bottle.
You know, those 10 litres water bottles or giant jar, water jar.
And see if it's going to work the same, or not.
Let's get to it!
The bottom is open, so all I have to do is pretty much just cut it in half.
I might just do a little bigger opening here.
*Super loud saw noise*
Something like that.
That have this way.
And this time in half (a cut here this way)
*Super loud saw noise*
I guess that works.
BOOM! And we cut that in half.
Then I got here an alcohol stove, I'll put some alcohol inside of it.
Then we're going to light up our alcohol stove.
Here you go.
Okay as you can see we have a flame, a pretty thick one.
What if we cover it up like this?
Nothing really have changed.
But what if we slide this a little bit?
Let's see what happens.
You see how this flame is turning around, turning around.
And, BOOM!
We got a fire tornado.
So awesome. Let me turn of the lights.
This is so much easier to do fire tornado.
With just plastic jar, but you see you gotta have it wide enough to where it's not going to melt it.
And I wouldn't just set it in the house and leave it, because
You know, it might set on fire.
This is just as an experiment.
BOOM! Look at that!
Beautiful fire tornado.
And now if we're going to put these jars together
Then it's just like going up regularly.
Now again, we are going to slide it a little bit.
Just an inch.
I love how it spins, spins, spins, and then turns into a tornado all the way.
WOW! So cool!
Let me show you from the top. From the top, it looks the best.
You know what? With the glass bottles, of course, it is much better.
You can see it better.
And
It is much more durable. It is much safer, because plastic might just melt.
But
With the glass, it's a lot harder to actually cut out the glass and stuff.
So, this is a pretty simple and easy experiment you can do with a plastic jar.
You see how that is a mini fire tornado.
Now, what happens if I close it?
BOOM! That's not a tornado anymore, it just a regular flame.
Now, slide it again.
I like how it goes to the side, to the side, each corner, burning off all the air.
And then it turns into the fire tornado. So cool!
Wow, look at that spinning.
I love that.
You see what I'm saying? You see how it spins.
Beautiful.
And once again. Close it.
BOOM! It's not spinning anymore, and the flame is not a storm anymore.
Really cool experiment!
