You son of a bitch!
Anybody actually know how to do this?
When I discovered this in high school we called it a jam jar jet. We used isopropyl alcohol for the fuel.
In 2026? 2026? Do we have a c/angryupvote yet?
Bahahaha you fucking piece of shit, I love you
Ha! You motherfucker. Glorious.
PSA: Do this with plastic jugs to reduce the risk of broken glass in your eye.
And—at the very least—wear some safety glasses.
are we sure that this "explosion" has even nearly enough energy to cause something like this?
If you think about the thermal stress caused by the heat in addition to the gas pressure, I think its fairly plausible.
Exactly this. I'm 90% certain there's an old video out there of a science teacher exploding a glass jug in a classroom doing or trying to do this.
Fucking tease.
