Shush, your supposed to let him try it ;-)

[HoUkiBoShIWISH]

Mm not too hard to do. Something like pure sodium or any alkali metals react to water violently. The other one. That takes a couple of minutes, looks more like a combustion reaction. Well. What I know of them. At least like I know anything XD
