A reaction of small piece of potassium metal with water. The flame you see is actually burning hydrogen given off but is colored pink due to potassium vapor.

@polmedo89 The Potassium in this video is pure metallic potassium that is on the periodic table, and it is the most radioactive. There are different isotopes of Potassium. The one in Bananas and other produce is of a different isotope and is way too weak to cause any combustion when in contact with water.

Some guy in our school tried to steal some potassium by wrapping it in tissue......when the tissue caught fire he poured water on his pants...........needless to say those pants have never been the same.......
