WAY easier to just buy some off ebay or a website. They work better and cost about a buck each. The ones i just received have no wire in them at all only bamboo (thin like incense sticks) Totally biodegradable. Going to set a bunch of them free on New Years Eve! SO MUCH FUN!! People like to talk shit about these because they are sad fearful souls....Try having some good safe fun for once before you go on a legislation warpath....geez!
For those people who say it is a fire hazard. Don't be an idiot and light it in windy or unsafe conditions, use common sense. The balloon ascends....the fuel cell burns out, and the paper bag descends somewhere safely. There are a zillion times more fires and damage caused from fireworks each year. Sky Lanterns are extremely safe and anyone who says otherwise is not speaking from experience. Some people want to outlaw everything.
before i light my fuel cell, i PREHEAT my sky lantern with a simple propane torch until it starts to float then i light my fuel cell so it can gain more altitude beside wasting 1 minute of burntime from the fuel cell, it works great
The Maritime and Coastguard Agency says coastguards and lifeboats are sent out needlessly. In 2010 the agency recorded 1,500 flare incidents, of which 500 were believed to be false alarms caused by lanterns, while the CAA says they also pose danger to landing aircraft.
Crops are also at risk; last summer in Oxfordshire, a blaze from a lantern destroyed 2.5 hectares of barley. Litter is also a problem, said the NFU: "The people releasing lanterns wouldn't dream of dumping rubbish, but that's what is happening."
Civil Aviation Authority wants a ban on the sale of the sky lanterns, which are paper and wire hot air balloons fuelled by a naked flame. "People have no control where they land," said Nick von Westenholz, government affairs adviser for the NFU. Dorset and Somerset fire service said it had seen a sharp increase in lantern fires in the past year. Farmers say cows suffer stomach damage from eating the wire of fallen lanterns.
I peg mine to the washing line, light em up then release em so you can get 5 or more airbourne in seconds! I had a fuel cell fall out of one, hope it didn't set light to anything!!! :)
@eqtworld Why the fuck are you such an ungrateful cunt? And if you think this is unfolding paper, then why the fuck did you take your time to go onto YouTube and type in 'How to unfold paper'? God, it's people like you that make this world a shit place to be. It'd be entertaining to watch you fail at assembling one of these.

Tell you what....how about i send you a video showing you how to wipe your own arse because thats about how insulting i find this video.
I only watched it because i had just ordered some.
I feel i owe you an update on how i did on my 1st sky lantern launch
I opened it, i swished it about in the air a little and then set fire to the fuel cell.
Guess what???....thats right....it flew.
Now go and play with uncle nobbys special toy and stay out of my inbox.

Thanks for that....i would never have worked that out on my own.
Oh and thanks for pointing out the instructions, i might have read them by accident deaming this video pointless and a complete waste of time.
Yoy must have taken months to get it right to justify making a video for thick and stupid
