    Giant Air Plant information:
    Its scientific name is Tillandsia utriculata. They are called 'air plants' because they typically live in trees. People sometimes think the name means they can survive air alone, but thats wrong! they still need water and nutrients (typically from decaying leaf litter they collect). They don't have a very high survival rate on the ground, and tend to die from staying wet for too long. Im just trying to raise awareness because I see people throwing them out or mowing over them all time time and there are very few left in my area.

      Ah, you must be American, since this is a typical example of Americans almost ALWAYS misunderstanding what puns ACTUALLY ARE, and these ARE NOT puns. Believe me, I'm English, we invented the pun, and are *masters of their delivery.*
      Using slang which is SO, SO over-used as to render people all but deaf to it, such as "hot" and "cool," and using these words, which are coincidentally descriptors of temperature, which the video references, DOESN'T MAKE THIS VIDEO AN EXAMPLE OF PUN DELIVERY.

    I've always thought it might be fun to somehow mix some liquid oxygen and kerosene (from what little I can find about this, the LOX would boil off quickly, but briefly you would have a slushie). If I understand correctly, if they are near stoichiometric and mixed, it will go high-order and detonate.

    As soon as the video started and I saw he was playing with Methane, my first thought was "I wonder if he'll make a soap bubble tower to light on fire?". I am glad to see that the answer was yes. Anytime you have Methane that is just something you gotta do lol.

      Actually, methane has a 30 times bigger greenhouse effect than carbon dioxide. When burning, you get three times as much carbon dioxide than methane.
      So burning the methane instead of releasing it into the air would actually be good. Just set the cows farts on fire!
