No, I tried it and it did not work. I was able to get voltage but the cotton wouldn't start on fire. I was able to get about 1 volt. I tried with vinegar and salt and got more voltage but no ignition or spark. Not sure what went wrong...

why not just use a 9- volt battery and connect the ends with paperclips. they make a spark when in contact.

as well as allowing women to WORK; they took half our jobs away and only accomplished skyrocketing the cost of living!

the reason this works with the toothpaste is because it has an alkaline nature, which nicely conducts the electrons free when the salt becomes aqueous in the liquid toothpaste.

Oh yeah, a girl asks me for a light. I don't have a lighter or a simple match, but I conveniently have a potato, salt, toothpaste, wires, and cotton. Oh, I'd never take the simple effort of walking and buying a 99 cent match box, I'll use this and I'm sure she'll wait like 7 minutes for the light instead of asking the other friend right next to her. This is great!

Seriously, what's the #$%@ing point of this video? >XD

Great way of using alternatives on getting a fire but waiting 5 mins for flame to appear and the fire disappear shortly, not worth it, get a lighter at Wal-mart!

I tried this and couldn't get the cotton ball to catch fire...

AND THEN.....................

** After many attempts... I finally got it to work (after placing a 9v battery inside the potato and connecting the two wires to each terminal) touched the wire to the wire in the cotton ball......and then VIOLA ... FLAMES !!!!

Do you use copper or silver wire. I had a potato clock as a kid and one wire was copper and the other silver. That thing ran just by putting the leads in the ground, beer all sorts of stuff.

Girl: Can you light my cigarette?

You: Well, I don't have my lighter or matches... but wait! I have big pockets, so I carry around a bunch of junk. Let's see... Good news! I've got all the stuff to make a fire.

lol not the best scenario.
Cool experiment though...
