@1234 you should, hold 2 matches together where one match-head is slightly below the other, then take 1,5"x2,5" peace of aluminum foil and wrap it tightly around the 2 matches. The peace of aluminum that sticks out above the match should then be folded down over the matches tightly. Now position the "rocket" in, for example, the lip of a soda can. Now light the rocket at the lower positioned match. Have fun. Should shoot about 3 feet.
