This egg is a repost from my old account.
In this egg i will show you how to make a fun
and effective fireball with some stuff you can find around the house, or get at little cost!
Take you’re balloon and butane canister and place
the mouth of the balloon over the nozzle of the canister.
Step 3:
Invert can and apply downward pressure on the nozzle
whilst holding tight onto the mouth of the balloon as to not let any of the butane escape.
Note:
You may want to wear a glove (not a latex one) as the
butane comes out very cold and hurts you’re fingers, it is also possible for it to cause frostbite.
Step 4:
Fill balloon to a desired amount, i do not suggest you fully inflate the balloon for safety reasons.
Step 5:
Once the balloon has been inflated to your desired amount stop releasing butane into the balloon. Remove the balloon from the nozzle making sure to hold tight to prevent the gas escaping. Now, tie the mouth of the balloon closed and move onto the next step.
Step 6:
Set the inflated balloon aside and get your paper towel.
Now fold your paper towel in half until it looks something like this.
Step 7:
Now take your tape and cut a length about 10 - 15cm long.
Step 8:
Grab your balloon, paper towel and length of tape.
Attach the paper towel to the balloon with the tape about half way leaving the mouth of the balloon facing up.
Step 9:
Now that you are almost done, you can personalize your balloon like i did if you want.
Step 10:
Now that that’s done, take your balloon outside to an
open area without trees and items that could catch fire.
You could make a stand like i did out of some bendable wire, i made this to extend this from the old dog kennel i was using as i realized the possible hazards and scenarios that could unfold.
Now setup the balloon on your stand making sure everything is safe.
Now take your flame source (in my case a zippo), light the paper towel and stand well away.
The result will be a cool little fireball witch you can see in my video here:
If i haven’t explained something well enough in the egg just comment or send me a message (make sure you can receive messages from non-approved friends) and i will help in anyway i can.

Some experimentation is needed for the best "bang". they make a loud concussion, even tho you dont hear that mnuch sound, it rattles all the windows around me, and if I go inside before it explodes, it rattles my door windows, which have metal grates over them!

I understand that but i couldn’t think of any other title.

I light these on my balcony and they rattle my balcony doors (glass with metal frames) The same as phillydudes :P, My doors also rattle when i explode bic lighters, so i guess butane rattles my door ? Good egg 5*
