Sparklers contain oxidizers. As a result, they are able to burn even when they are placed in an environment where oxygen is absent.

Oxygen for the reaction is provided by the oxidizers found in the sparklers.

Do NOT try this at home. Sparklers and fireworks cause too many injuries already!

  • Fuck!

    It melted the plactic tube.

  • It is even worse since that is a GLASS cylinder! That means that the heat was probably around 1500 Degrees Celsius (2700 F)!

  • That's some high quality H2O!

  • coooolll !!! im going tu tr it

  • Ok, i'll try it at a friends house!

  • @ThirstForScience it didnt melt, the glass broke, the glass beakers didn't break because they can handle moderate amounts of heat without cracking or breaking, but measuring cylinders weren't built to handle that kind of sudden heat change

  • sparklers burn underwater because they are magnezium how ever u sell it.. my dad wont even weld on that shit!

  • ! DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME! .... thanks for the instructions i'm trying it
