Sweet candle trick "flame dropping"

My Chemistry teacher showed us this trick, and the "1,2,3" are individual frames from a camera shooting 29 frames/second. Really simple, ... all » just holding the match above the candle right after it is extinguished relights the wick. Howstuffworks.com's description of this phenomenon: "When you blow out a candle, you notice a stream of white smoke leaving the wick. This stream is paraffin vapor that has condensed into a visible form. It continues to form as long as the wick is hot enough to vaporize paraffin. If you touch a lit match to the stream, a flame will run down it and re-light the wick." Notice in the video the flame "drops down" the white smoke line proving this theory.
