sorry for the double post..but i burned my hand doing this experiment
...so can u explained wad did i do wrong?
1)get a 100% cotten
2)tied with string without needle
3)put zippo lighter fuid and burn it..
4) it burned my hand

cwiltz (6) 1/18/08 9:44 AM
Hey magnus fate,

Sorry u got burned -
i didn't make the video but I'm told that zippo fluid burns too hot too quickly to be used in this. You want to use normal lighter fluid (butane?) that doesn't burn as hot - and also make sure you keep your hands moving try using cold water on your hands too.

xbloy 8/14/09 10:55 AM
Could u dilute the fluid using water?

This does not work. I used the exact lighter fluid he used and it burns very hot. You will definitely burn your hands.

blade93 (21) 2/13/09 12:35 AM
Try using a mix of lighter fluid and pure spirit,,,you can buy spirit in a pharmacy...try doing a combination of 60%spirit and 40% lighter fluid. Also do not put too much of the mix onto those clothballs, try putting a little at first and if everything works out, then you could scale it up.

Awesome. Combine this with the colored fire tutorial and it'd be twice as good.

mix lighter fluid with pure spirit (ethanol)...you can buy spirit in a pharmacy...I don;t think that rubbing alcohol will work too good, so try to buy alcohol (spirit/ethanol) that is used in hospitals to disinfect wounds and medical tools. It should be 96 or 98 % alcohol. When you acquire spirit from the pharmacy, mix it with lighter fluid: 60% spirit and 40% alcohol, should give you a more gentle flame.

soak your hand in cold water before you hold it. its obviously gonna be somewhat hot but i think its more of a mental than physical heat. Holding a ball of fire isn't a normal thing for most of us so you have to get used to it. also, DO NOT soak the ball too much otherwise the flaming fluid will drip onto your hands which does burn htem :P
+2
GothMagi (1) 10/12/08 9:35 PM
Okay, I tried it. Couldn't wait. Got burned. Even soaked my hands in cold water first. After reading the comments I thought "Oh, these people just THOUGHT they would get burned because it probably does get a little uncomfortably hot but not enough to actually get burned. If I just start with cold hands & keep it moving etc., I'll be fine. I can take a little intense heat. Blah, blah..." - WRONG! So, you're obviously leaving something out of the equation here. Come on now, you've had your fun. It's been posted about nine months. What's the REAL secret? My fingers still sting!
+1
arnelfrancisco 1/24/09 8:49 PM
People, the only reason you think it burns is because the slightest heat you feel makes you think you WILL burn. It's instinctive that you immediately drop the ball(the fireball) but it doesn't burn. It's in your mind. You gotta think positive & you can't let the ball rest in one section of your palm. You have to move it around. Trust me coz I tried this last week with plain household rubbing alcohol & it works. The blue flame feels warm so I'm assuming it's the orange flame that burns. Try rubbing alcohol instead although it burns shorter than lighter fluid. Have fun!

mybad9000 (-13) 1/27/09 2:13 PM
dude i wqas trynna say tye same ting but in a different way i did mit with mythalated spirits(add water to ball 4 blue flame no water for orange)it doesnt actualy burn to bad the orange flame is a little hotter though
+1
GothMagi (1) 10/13/08 1:06 PM
You WILL get burned if you follow the instructions exactly as in the vid! There is some additional secret to this that isn't included here. Probably a chemical protectant for the skin. Please God, I MUST know!

blade93, dude, "try to buy alcohol spirit ethanol". 60% spirit and 40% alcohol, don't you mean 60% lighter fluid? If spirit=ethanol=alcohol
Repeated, generously shared, but still unfollowable bro
+2
blade93 (21) 7/16/09 4:45 PM
well, spirit = 98% ethanol & 2% water
Ethanol=100% ethanol
alcohol=40-60% ethanol & the remaining percentage is water.
All of the above are fuel, just of different concentration of actual ethanol.

Back in elementary school I did this trick where you soak cloth in water, add alcohol (for fuel) and lit it on fire. You get fire but it doesn't burn the cloth. Try soaking the ball in water and then add the fuel. If that doesn't work, you have a fire ball that doesn't burn and so what if you can't hold it. You shouldn't be playing with fire anyway. :)

blade93 (21) 2/13/09 12:49 AM
Spirit evaporates quickly...thats why it ran out very quickly in your case...mix lighter fluid with pure spirit (ethanol)...60% spirit and 40% alcohol, should give you a more gentle flame and a decent amount of time to play around...when you start feeling the flame getting warmer...close you hands to cut of oxygen supply to the fireball and add more spirit to make the flame gentle again.

blade 93.....you really should stop commenting repeatedly, posting the same wrong information.......at least get your basic chemistry right....alcohols are a class of organic compounds....ethanol is an alcohol....ethanol forms an azeotropic mixture with water which means it's harder to distill pure ethanol from its mixture with water.....your whole spirit alcohol thing is annoying and wrong

spirit is used in medicine to disinfect tools, wounds and other stuff. Spirit is basically a mixture of ethanol and water, 98 or 96 % ethanol (alcohol) and 2 or 4 % water. When you acquire spirit from a pharmacy, mix it with lighter fluid: 60% alcohol (spirit or ethanol or call it which ever name you like its all the same stuff) and 40% lighter fluid, these proportions should give you a more gentle flame.

BBQ12 (-1) 1/21/09 8:52 PM
Okay, i signed up just for this and ill probably never visit this site again, but anyway...

I did this a different way but it works better in terms of not getting burnt. Make the same cotton ball in this video or you could use a scrunched up tissue (but BE CAREFUL, at the end it may catch on fire).

You have to make a mix of 1/2 methylated spirits & 1/2 water. You may have to experiment using a bit more methylated spirits because sometimes there is too much water.The water stops you getting burnt.

You have to do this at night though as the flame is invisible during the day. Have fun :)

mybad9000 (-13) 1/30/09 9:56 AM

I found the secret you must dump out some lighter fluid from the bottle and fill the difference with water. like two parts fluid one part water. I tried and it works but I don't know the exact measurements but I know that it takes dumping some fluid out adding some water and mixing it.

x-plosivsera (3) 1/28/09 7:14 AM
What i got from all these?
1)You have to use a 100% cotton cloth
2)Make a mix of water and lighter fuel(or alcohol), approx. 3/5 fuel, and 2/5 water,
3)Put non-flamable gel in your hands, or cold water
4)Keep the ball moving, and don't touch the red high flame, otherwie you'll get burned
5)To put the fire out, close your hands so there is no combastion.
6)Don't put too much of the mix on the ball, or it will get in your hands too.
I hope this will help you understand what this is about. :D

mix lighter fluid with pure spirit (ethanol)...you can buy spirit in a pharmacy...I don;t think that rubbing alcohol will work too good, so try to buy alcohol (spirit/ethanol) that is used in hospitals to disinfect wounds and medical tools. It should be 96 or 98 % alcohol. When you acquire spirit from the pharmacy, mix it with lighter fluid: 60% spirit and 40% alcohol, should give you a more gentle flame.

neoherman (-1) 2/13/09 6:44 AM
blade I don't undestarnd you. common alcohol is ethanol and spirit is also ethanol, so you're burning 100% ethanol. Unless "spirit" is something else - I live In Chile :P
I used ethanol 80% and cold water in my hands first

blade93 (21) 2/13/09 3:37 PM
spirit is ethanol that is used to make vodka...Mixing spirit and lighter fluid will give a different substance that will burn longer and the flame is going to be of normal size and gentle to touch.
+2
blade93 (21) 2/13/09 3:45 PM
Dont forget, that both liquids, spirit and lighter fluid, evaporate and those evaporates actually burn. Spirit evaporates much faster than lighter fluid and spirit also burns much more smoothly than lighter fluid...If you look closely at the video, you will see that the color of the flame is blue next to his hands, white in the middle and orange at the top...Do some research concerning the chemistry of spirit and lighter fluid. Also try to read about chemical equations and how the two mix together...look for "chemical equations calculator" http://www.trimen.pl/witek/calculators/wspolczynniki.html
it should help you determine the best proportions for the mix.

I thought that blue flame was hotter than orange or red and red is the coolest?

Does this really work?
Or is it a video trick?

If it does work then please explain to me WHY it works. What is the science behind it?

If noone can explain that then why would I waste money to try something that probably won't work anyway?

Why does the bottom of the flame not burn?

Reptilefreak94 (1) 4/14/09 10:30 PM
hey guys, great video. its awesome. i use zippo lighter fluid. First i started of burning the ball when it was on the ground and when i put my finger close to it it was reallt hot, but after a few trys i just picked it up and it worked. the smaller u make it, the less hot it is and same with the amount of fluid u put onto it. I sometimes put my hands and the ball in water first, then put the fluid over it and it works just as well and isnt as hot. you've gotta keep moving them around in your hands otherwise after a few seconds it starts to get really hot. but otherwise its awesome. heaps of fun. thanks for the video.

Dont ya love how everyone says :

mix lighter fluid with pure spirit (ethanol)...you can buy spirit in a pharmacy...I don;t think that rubbing alcohol will work too good, so try to buy alcohol (spirit/ethanol) that is used in hospitals to disinfect wounds and medical tools. It should be 96 or 98 % alcohol. When you acquire spirit from the pharmacy, mix it with lighter fluid: 60% spirit and 40% alcohol, should give you a more gentle flame.

And no one listens...lol

"SHOOT" IT WAS BAD. BUT THAT WAS HALF A YEAR AGO, SINCE I JUST GOT BACK MY COMPUTER YESTERDAY, GOT IT GROUNDED FROM THAT INCIDENT.

you see him constantally movin it around and passin it from hand to hand plus he blows on it t one point its fire its going to be hot but not hot enough to burn you its just like passing your hand over a lighter also make sure the string is wrapped tight but not so tight that the fluid is squeezed out

sienna heflin 7/6/10 11:54 AM
wow u guys are way too complicated. all you need is rubbing alcohol. as long as you transfer the ball from time to time, its a comfortable, warm blaze, not hot. even though rubbing alcohol doesn't burn for exceptionally long periods of time, its a good substitute 4 fuel. if you still dont feel comfortable with handling this, soak the ball and put it on the garage floor then light it. take your time getting to know the flames and getting comfortable touching them. simple, without leaving your house to buy special liquids.
